Just got a call from a guy I used to work with. He asked me if he could come by for a few as he had something I might be interested in. Well, he totes in a big box and it is filled with late model promos. 4 S-10 4x4 pickups, two extended cab pickups, 8 Camaro's from 82-93, a couple of Buick Reattas, A Buick Regal, A 93 Geo Storm, 89 Beretta and 45 Corvettes in all kinds of flavors. They are all in the original boxes and some have never been opened. Now I don't know anything about promos and I sure don't know anything about the new ones. I am not sure if I took this in the shorts or got a bargain but I took em for his asking price of $75. I figured what the heck, I could make back my money even if I sold em at $2 each. Now before you start asking, NO. I am gonna go through all this stuff and do a little research and see if I got stung or kissed. This is new to me, never messed with promos before. Here is a few of the trucks, 93 and 94 extended cab and 94 S-10   |

Well, if nothing else, they seem to be in fantastic shape judging by the 3 you posted here. The only thing I know about dealer promos is that the local AMC dealer in my little hometown had a HUGE collection of promos on display in the dealership. I always wondered what happened to them when the dealership finally closed the doors.

Well David, that tells me I have finally done something RIGHT! LMAO! I know I didn't hit the Comstock Lode on this deal but I am hoping a few of them might be something good. It will take me a while to research all these different Corvettes. I am sure it is close to worthless but I have never ever seen a Geo Storm promo or kit until this one. its cute in Mystic Magenta.

If you find just the right Corvette collector, you might be sitting on a nice little pile of cash. I'm not a 'Vette fan at all, but you can't deny there are a boat load of 'Vette fans in the world.

 , that is a cutie pie David but I wouldn't show that one again. Those guys in white coats just might come visit you too. If one is carrying an extra coat, run! Trust me, if they get one on you, it is really hard to reach the zipper. |

Heck gloozalot, all I really use that build for these days is to wedge it under the back door from my shop into my little office. If I've got an armload or need to make several trips, that old Geo Stormino gets jammed right into the door and she stays propped open!
