Oppo, I need Hot Wheels Help!

There's two trucks I'm really looking for. I have almost the whole set of Chevy trucks. I have the Advance Design, first and second generation C/K Series, and first and second generation Silverado. I'm getting one of the third generation C/K trucks from Frosted.

All in all, I'm missing two generations. The Task Force and one of the GMT400's. I know Hot Wheels has made the Task Force, it's called a '56 Flashsider. That comes in both regular style and a lifted style. And there is probably multiple versions of the GMT400. Those are the ones from the 90's. I'm sure Matchbox and Hot Wheels both have variants.

I'd really love to get those last two to complete the set. If anyone has either, I'd really love to trade for them!

EDIT:

Thanks for the help guys! I knew if I'd get help it would be from y'all. Thanks to GRawesome, I'll most likely get the Flashsider. That leaves the 3rd gen C/K. I found out Matchbox has a lifted K1500. I'm not sure yet on Hot Wheels. The GMT400 are the square 90's Chevy trucks that are just about everywhere. Here's a version of the Matchbox K1500.

Thanks again guys!

You weren't kidding about buying all those flatbed trucks! I see 4 in that pic!

GRawesome > JQJ213- Now With An Extra Cylinder!
03/08/2014 at 20:36

There are another 7 buried in there somewhere...

I bought them because I thought they would look cool with other hot wheels on the back, but it turns out only the really short ones can fit on there completely. It will still look good though once I get them back on shelves. I compiled them all so I could organize and put them in a spreadsheet (so I would stop buying doubles) and just haven't put them back yet.

I actually just got that exact 04 Rado the other day. Same paint and everything haha.

I'd do either the C3500 or orange 1500 if you want. Anything you're looking for in trade?

03/09/2014 at 12:37

So I was somewhat helpful? Were those kind of what you were looking for?

And do you have anything kind of unique? I just want something that is kind of different...

Dingers Ghost, Champion Jockey > JQJ213- Now With An Extra Cylinder!
03/09/2014 at 12:40

Yes! You were helpful. They're the body style I'm looking for, and one's a race truck!

Um.... I'm not sure. I could link you to my whole collection if you want to take a look thorugh.

There are two that I really liked.. The old yellow fire truck and the Renault Seemed cool... If they are available..

Dingers Ghost, Champion Jockey > JQJ213- Now With An Extra Cylinder!
03/09/2014 at 13:45

They are yours! For the two I said. Anything you'd do for the 75 Steppy?

GRawesome > Dingers Ghost, Champion Jockey
03/09/2014 at 15:32

Have you got anything you want to trade since last time? Only thing left on the list was that Z racecar and I know you don't want to trade that.

These are my most recent posts.

If there's nothing new I could probably do the Z for the Flashsider, it's one I'm really wanting.

GRawesome > Dingers Ghost, Champion Jockey
03/09/2014 at 16:35

OK, here is the list. It's all your best ones of course, because I've already got almost anything else. If you don't want to give any of them up, I understand. You can just owe me one.

Treasure Hunt '55 to go with my matte black one

Cobra 427

M2 Charger Daytona because I love those MOPAR wing cars

03/09/2014 at 21:00

Sounds good. I got your e-mail already and I'll send out the Flash for you tomorrow.

How's the rest of the hunt going? You able to find all the trucks you need?

Dingers Ghost, Champion Jockey > GRawesome
03/10/2014 at 09:16

Yes, I needed the GMT400. Those are the 90s chevy. JQJ found a couple for me. That'll be the whole set then!

GRawesome > Dingers Ghost, Champion Jockey
03/10/2014 at 18:22

Nice going on getting the whole set! Now time to start on the next collection...

Didn't get a chance to mail the Flash out today, but I'll get it out tomorrow for sure.

Dingers Ghost, Champion Jockey > GRawesome

10-4, no worries man. We've traded enough, I know you'll get it to me eventually.
