Did you see on the package, our website?

Tercin (one of our Charter Members) was key in getting these done...

He's 3 and one of the things he said he wanted was "a Pinto but not a big one a small one".

I got it on EBAY for 3 bucks shipped.  No box.  Very nice detail.  I'd love to have one for myself.  Can I still get a new in box one?
Thanks,
Scott

A new one in box  probably only on ebay  or look at walmart  toy dept  a set called American graffiti   moments in time  it has a scenery with it and about $9. That is the 1/64 (hot wheels ) size. may also find some at a swap meet  as they did come in the 1/24 size as well.

red

yellow

...and maybe others. I haven't seen these at wal-mart in a while. I got them about 2 years ago. If you want to buy one of mine that's in the package, PM me. Specify yellow or red. $4 plus shipping (total probably about $6.50), or I trade for other 1/64s, Johnny Lightning, Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Superfast, Corgi, etc. (whatcha got?)

Happy Holidays
Chuck

He's certainly being brought up right!
