Alternate Pink "DYE DIPPED" Milk Truck
As fellow Die-Cast enthusiasts do you ever wonder when the big corporate producers of these little jewel's are going to finally get it right? I mean to say, "when are they finally going to do one that way". So many times I see some of my favorite castings either with nice wheels and junk for finish, or a great finish with wheel size and type completely missing the mark.

Now I understand they're only a buck and they need to use up all the stock materials on a particular model run, and engineering and marketing decision makers have a part in the final look. With all that in mind I suppose there is just too many hands in the mix and therefore the coolest and cleanest styles are not often realized. Are we too criticle? Maybe. But for those of use true believers in the hobby, and I find most of them have a Hot Rod background, this small section is devoted to you.

I hope you enjoy some of these alternatives,  and if your curious how some of these creations were produced, drop me a line in our messege board, I will be glad to help out.         Happy Hunting.          EJ
