Throwback TV Police Cars from Greenlight!

In the Seventies, patrol cars from Ford, Dodge, Chevrolet, and others were readily found on the streets, as well as on many popular shows on television. Greenlight has recreated some of these familiar cars with true-to-scale detail, real rubber tires, and authentic TV show decoration. The functioning doors on these officially licensed replicas open to reveal the detailed interior.

Speed is an important aspect in a car, even more so if there's any chance of a high-speed car chase. One of the most recognizable cop cars from 70's tv shows like The Dukes of Hazzard and The A-Team is the Plymouth Fury, available now at 3000toys.com. In addition, the Hazzard County Sheriff Fury pairs perfectly with The General Lee (#964) by American Muscle, in stock only while supplies last.

 Although these patrol cars are harder to find than they once were, there are many 1/18 scale options available to add to collections. Similar to the Plymouth Fury, the Dodge Monaco was another popular choice for police squads. One example of the 1977 Monaco was featured in The Terminator.

Great New International Harvester Models from First Gear!

One of my favorite periods in automotive history is the 1970s. There's something about classic styling coupled with exciting advances in technology that make it an unforgettable era. You may think I'm talking about the appeal of muscle cars, like Corvettes, Thunderbirds, and the like, but right now I'm all about trucks. 

I love classic farm trucks; the boxier, the better. These new First Gear models certainly fit the bill!

#40-0318 - 1/25 Scale
1979 International Scout Terra Pickup

Both of these awesome 1/25th scale models feature opening doors, detailed undercarriages and interiors, incredibly accurate mechanical details, spare tire mountings, realistic factory paint schemes, and free-rolling wheels.  

#40-0374 - 1/25 Scale
