Collectors Guide for LEGO Chevrolet Trucks... For Sale...

Recommended Posts

Hi, for those of you who remember my 3000 page Unofficial LEGO Sets/Parts Collectors Guide as a DVD download, I have another guide for sale starting today....

The LEGO Chevrolet 1:43 Trucks and Wagons Guide (1952-57).

This covers all 109 LEGO trucks, wagons, and related accessories that TLG produced during those early years. These were sold only in Denmark (1952-57), Norway (1954-57), and Iceland (1955-57), and are very rare today. Some of the rarer items can range for many hundreds of dollars.

This 50 page collectors guide, the only online guide for this rare series, is available for only $6.95. Just Paypal me @ istokg@earthlink.net

You can contact me at this same ID, if you have any questions.

You will get a huge PDF file with 50 pages, 115 pictured LEGO items, and 70 additional photos (68 color, 2 historic black/white ones), and each item described and shown individually.

Here is the guides Banner Page shows the "gift box" of the series...
