Bowling Green is around the corner and I thought that I would see if anybody going needs any to complete a set or needs a set. I will see what I can do for you. As of now it looks like I can get all but, as time gets closer I might not be able to get some that are out of stock.

If you are intrested post and send me an email of what you want.

If you can get the first one Ed you can put me down for that one as it has the 35th Anniversary in it. Or anyone that has that model. [Big Grin] Thanks for the offer. [Smile]

Don't know if Johnny has one or makes one, but i'll take any 97'SS vert you can find... [Wink] it can be in a pack or alone.

Thank's
BadRag

I need the 2002 from the 35th Anniversary collection Ed. I won't be going to BG, but it shouldn't cost me to much to have you mail it to me up in Saginaw (if you can find one that is).

Hello Ed,
I need the 1st series. I've got a fractured set without the LE vert. Thanks for thinking about all of us. See you in BG. BTW, I have extras from the 2nd series if you need those.

Cool Ed. My zip is 48609, just let me know when you need me to send money, how much, and how you want it (paypal, snail mail etc).

Thanks.

I wish they had a version with the IROC-Z. Trying to find anything on these cars is very hard and they were produced from 1985 to 1990.

Anyone know if anything was made as a collectable for these cars? Preferably the 1986 Camaro Z28 IROC-Z as that is my other car.
 
Posted by BadRag (Member # 1566) on :
 
Thanks Ed, as i see from the list, nothing as far as a 96/97 goes, it does not have to be a vert, but would be nice, if you happen to run across any of these.....

SS RS Z....I'll keep my eyes open for an IROC for you, not sure, but i think i ran across a 1/25 scale model of one in a local hobby store, i can recheck if your interested...

ss_rs_z there is a snaptite that is available at most hobby shops. It is made by revell monogram. It is a 86 to 89, I cant remember for sure. It has a scoop on the hood that can be removed and filled in with white puddy if you have the time. Snap tites are usually not as well detailed as other models, because they are aimed at newcomers just starting, but if patent, it can look just as good as any other model. My 2 cents from working in a shop for 4 years and building models for 15 years.
 
Posted by ss_rs_z (Member # 1888) on :
 
Thanks Bad and yes I am very interested. I remember one time and I can't reemmberthe scale but it was a huge model that came out by Revell back in the 80's. I wish I had picked that up when I had the chance. Thanks for the help. [Big Grin]

Woody I am definately going to check the hobby store. Snaptite is fine and I appreciate you letting me know this. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks again. [Big Grin]

Ed,
I would take the whole 1st set. What few I have from that set are pretty beat up.

Thanks,

One of the JL sets I have at home have a black IROC Z28. I will see if there is a part# on the package.It is highly detailed too. [Smile]

Here's a suggestion: Bring a plastic tote of the die-cast cars you have available for sale or trade. If we have room in the car, I'll be doing the same. We'll get into a swap session at the hotel on SSOA Thursday and throughout the weekend.
 
Posted by 35TH ED/ed (Member # 1709) on :
 
Teri I don't have any to swap. I thought I would try to help anybody that needs any to complete a set since I have a place to get them now. Later on their might not be enough time if they have to be ordered. Was trying to save on shipping.

Anybody that has any to swap could also post them here [Big Grin] .

Hookerf14 mentioned that he had some extra from set #2 don't know if it is a full set.

I was thinking of taking this topic to the BG section (friday) to keep it near the top to remind people What do you think [Smile] .
 
Posted by HTWLSS (Member # 117) on :
 
I always just try to buy whatever I can find on the shelf at the time, because by the time I get on the board to see who wants it, it's gone when I go back.

I have many extras of some stuff, and only one or two of others. It's my plan to display at least one and use the others for swapping through the years when new ones aren't out there.

If you can afford to buy what you see, I can bet you'll be able to find someone to buy it in the future. I'll most likely take many of the 1st Gen, especially '67 & '68 off your hands and just might have something you haven't seen and would like to get ahold of. Most of the time I can't remember what I already have, so I just keep buying and when I get the chance to inventory it all, will have lots of extras for others to enjoy.
 
Posted by ss_rs_z (Member # 1888) on :
 
Okay Ed I will try and get off work early one day this week and stop by on the way home. I appreciate it. [Big Grin]

Greg I look forward to getting the part number and appreciate the help very much. I try to go to swap shows when I get the time but haven't been able to with so much going on. [Big Grin]

Teri if I bought All that I saw it would get me tossed out of the house. This store deals in JL and Hot wheels plus the 1/18 scale only. I could load up a cargo van full with 1 each of GM cars and trucks they have in stock.

Been looking at this Camaro for awhile what does everyone think [Smile] .

Ken you dont have to get off work early .

Is anybody into slot cars ? Saw one black and one yellow early 1st gen JL slot car $10 each/ believe they are called thunder jets.

Also anybody looking for a late gen Firebird I saw a white one and a green/teal one.

The situation would have been the same for me if I hadn't married Steve. You are preaching to the choir here. Half of our spare bedroom is floor to ceiling filled with cases of cars. Thank goodness we both have the same sickness.

VERY cool. A bit spendy, but would be a nice compliment to the painted Sunoco series.
 
Posted by ss_rs_z (Member # 1888) on :
 
I just don't want to inconvenience you by comingover too late Ed. I didn't get off of work until 6:45 last night and after working in this heat and humidity I needed to get home and shower. By that time when all was said and done it was 8:00 so that would have been a little late. I will try and hook up soon. [Cool]
 
Posted by 35TH ED/ed (Member # 1709) on :
 
Teri picked up some nice swap items for BG [Big Grin] . Several early camaro's ,ragtops, & slot cars [Smile] .

Also picked up the brushed Alum [Big Grin] .

Who wants to give me $2500 for a signed Jim Epler 1/24 35th Anniversary SS Funny Car made by Ertel. This car is the replica of the Funny Car used at the 2002 US Nationals at Indianapolis. The orginal funny car body was used at the US Nationals only. The Die Cast was offer for sale by order only, but they never went into full production. I have of the 2 signed Camaros that I know of.
