Re: Matchbox Chevy Stepside Pickup

I have 2 versions of it. One is gray with black and orange stripes on the side. The other is blue with a white roof and white stripes on the side. It is a Lesney Edition that comes with a "match box" in the blister with the truck. I have also seen another version in a 5-pack, but haven't picked that one up.

Re: Matchbox Chevy Stepside Pickup

I like that one. I have the green & white one,I think it;s the first. I like how it's close to factory looking. I'd like to grab more variations as well as customize some. He'smy 4wd version:

Re: Matchbox Chevy Stepside Pickup

That blue one reminds me of that factor paint job back then.

Re: Matchbox Chevy Stepside Pickup

I scored 2 different versions of this truck today. This morning I was at Wal-Mart and found the yellow one. They had 2 of them hanging on the pegs, so I grabbed them both so I could bust one open. This evening I was at Target and found the blue one, but they only had the one, so I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for a second.

Re: Matchbox Chevy Stepside Pickup

Dang...I didn't know there were so many. I've seen the Diego one, but didn't want to buy the whole set to get it.

Yeah, I think I have a couple more buried somewhere.
I'm missing the yellow/black that you posted above and I think there is another purple one..

Re: Matchbox Chevy Stepside Pickup

Somewhere stored away, I have the original version of that wrecker that I played with as a kid.
