Umm... that's how much you'd pay at Wal-Mart for those, bud. I dunno about you, but the 74.99 for a car like that is stupid. I've seen all those go for less than 20bux at Wally's. :D
 
Well for starters he's in Canada, so you have to factor the exchange rate. That'd make it about $62 here.But the next thing is, I've never seen classic cars at a store like Wal-Mart. I've occationally seen them at specialty stores like Sharper Image, but they mostly carry the new cool stuff like the Carrera GT, and they're usually $40 to $60. So honestly, these car are priced about right.

I totally dig the truck. A friend of mine drives a `65 F100 to work and it's a great truck. His is nearly all original - barely touched in its youth. If it weren't in such good shape as an original classic, I'd want him to paint it black.
 
They are pretty good, I dont know if i would have payed 75 bucks for them maybe like 20 tops but still nice.

P.S. Sorry i didnt mean to do it twice my piece of crap computer freezes so much.
