Are they worth the buy?
If you have purchased or know someone who has bought them, are they worth it?

I received a '48 as a Xmas gift that looks amazingly like those in the ad. Mine is proudly displayed on my desk looking great and has the details described. While I am unsure that mine came from this source, I would go for it knowing the price is quite reasonable.
If only my full sized version was finished...

I hate to say negative, but they never tell you what the scale is... could be that thing is 1:35 scale and only 2" long front to back. I did some serious shopping last year in the time when my truck was isolated from me and found the largest scale I could was a Yat Ming 1:18 scale.
1948 Ford F1 Pickup Truck - Light Green (YatMing) 1/18 diecast car scale model
I got the red (even though my truck is green, cause that particular green is just way wrong lookin to me) from amazon with free shipping. The Yat ming has movable working steering wheel and front wheels. On that little ad www site they never show the wheels at anything but straight ahead. My guess from the similarities it is probably a yat ming as well though.

I got one a few years back, and it came with the F100 for free, its 6 1/8 " long, tail gate opens, doors, wheels spin and turn side to side and are plyable with spare, the hood opens, the steering wheel does not turn ( i just broke it checkin to see if it did ) for the price im happy with it. And it came with a little cataloge with other cars/trucks available. Mine was made under licence for National Motor Museum Mint, acording to the sticker on its bottom (made in China)

I ordered them off TV as well. It's certainly no bargain as they would lead you to believe ($10.00) as the total cost is actually $25.00..when you factor in the S&H on the FREE F100. Of course, you aren't made aware of the S&H charges until you have already checked out. So, you end up paying about the max they are worth together.

I've had three separate patients bring me the same trucks. One guy brought me one that was a little bigger. Like you, I thank them profusely and display them proudly on my shelf at work. It is a very thoughtful gift. In the summertime when I drive my truck, I like to take the old timers outside and show them my flathead. Their eyes just light up.

This is probably the favorite in my collection. In the San Diego area we are fortunate to have G&G Early Ford Parts nearby. I was in there to buy some '49 F-1 nick-nacks and I saw this model. Had to have it. Don't know who actually makes it but it's about 11 inches long. So it's kinda cool. The wife insists that it be prominately displayed in our living room. She's a monkey-face fanatic.... In other words, she has proper '48-'50 F-1 understanding..... Just kidding. I've actually come to a place where I like the toothy trucks just as much.......
