1967 C-30 Ramp Truck, White - Grumpy's Toy

#A1801711 - Pre-Order - expected in the 4th quarter of 2024 (announced 7/11/24) in 1:18 scale is a 1967 Chevrolet C-30 Ramp Truck in White with Grumpy’s Toy Race Graphics.

Grumpy Jenkins is widely known for his superior engine building skills, being a top-notch drag racer and a multi-motorsports hall of fame inductee. In 1966, Jenkins’ decided to independently run a Chevrolet of his own, and developed an engine package that made him a stand out in racing circles. Without the help of factory support, Jenkins developed his first Grumpy’s Toy: a Chevy II with a 327 cubic-inch engine. His efforts caught the eye of Chevrolet corporate, and this led to him being added to Chevrolet’s “sponsored” team in 1967.

Jenkins won only 13 NHRA national events as a driver, and was voted the eighth best of all-time when the NHRA held its 50th anniversary in 2001. As an engine and car builder, he has been inducted into every hall of fame and bestowed with every honor possible for a drag racer. Grumpy continues to see his influence on the stock classes today and his Jenkins Competition, the tuning shop he opened in the 1950s, remains in business.

These are a die-cast body made as a closed model (no opening features) but it does have posable front wheels, the ramps "slide in" to the back area of ramp, has a detailed chassis with dual rear wheels, and comes with moveable wheel chocks to hold different size cars on the back. It measures 16.75" long and it 4.25" wide, so are a rather large item. Don't miss out on this tribute to Grumpy and a great way to display your Grumpy model on.
