I was searching google on diecast trucks the other day and found a truck made by Danbury Mint company that was dressed out as a turkey truck....sold for 150.00 .... I wanted one....so I bought me a diecast F-150 1956 Ford cause I like the body style, and made my own tonight....from this to....(http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e182/ace250semo/Project699_zps2362df31.png)
don't judge it by the picks, it really is nicer....
(http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e182/ace250semo/Project695_zpsc0a38272.png)it is 1/32nd scale, I made my own decals from pictures I had and from pictures of turkeys killed with my calls,
(http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e182/ace250semo/Project697_zps2767f46b.png)I love the hood with the indian and his bird taken by bow and arrow.....and the bed cover has a young boy being schooled by an Indain on turkey hunting....

Very nice!! :icon_thumright:
That's cool Pappy ! Can we call it the Gobbler Mobile ? :icon_thumright:
Very nice!
That's pretty neat . I've never seen one of those before.
very nice. I don't see a gun rack in the rear window. ;D
Way Cool! :icon_thumright:
Too Cool Pappy!
Thats pretty darn cool!!!!
Awesome. Congrats.....
WOW! Thats a real work of art!! Being bored like that could make ya an awful lot of money if you were to sell something like that. Awesome!! :icon_thumright:
Crappie...that is so odd, my wife just came in with the same idea.....and to personalize each truck with pics of the hunter and their bird or pets or something to make it a one of a kind for sure....I wouldn't know what to charge any ideas?
Nice work Pappy!
$150 seems to be the going price?
That is one fine looking turkey truck Pappy. I didn't see any Old Gobbler decals or an NWTF license plate though.Of course if you sell them you probably couldnt use the NWTF logo .
Pappy you are way cool. How do you come up with all your ideas. :you_rock:
