Found these at Wal-Mart today.

 

nice! I have the white one, too. I like em. but the size is just too big for my tastes

 

I got the Grabber Orange one yesterday and looky what I found... a white '65 #11!

 

I am still looking for that one!

 

which one, the white one?

I can get you one and mail it if you want.

 

thanks for the offer but guess what!? I got three of them today!


a friend custom made this one for me




I dyed these too..








AND...Finally got my Treasure hunt in a trade with the same friend..




sorry for the long post! Also I didn't mean to hijack your thread...
here's a pic of mine, yes i did open it

 

Hey Luke,

Can you tell me how how you dye these again? I can't seem to find the post where you gave the steps before.

I want to try some just for S&G.

Thanks

 

1. pour boiling water into a bowl (you don't want it boiling just near) that is not widely use for food and that can handle the heat.

2. pour the RIT dye from the packet (only as much as you need for the desired color). It doesnt take much. Stir.

3. I stick wooden scewers through the open windows to be able to get the cars out without dying my skin.

4. Let the cars sit in the dye. the longer they sit, the more intense the color.

5. White cars are the best to start with.

6. after desired color is dyed on the car, rinse off with cold water.

Hope this helps Bill

 

What is RIT dye & is it available at most stores like wmart?

 

Yup, its in the aisle with the detergent and stuff...usually upper shelves...
