My count was off I now have 37 ramp trucks in my collection of 172 total 1/18 scale diecast all of them on display. 

 

I am currently waiting for a Ferrari to be released but that won't happen until the end of the year or the beginning of next year.

I do not own any 1/18 ramp trucks....but have been contemplating replicating this one in 1/18.  🤔 🤔 🤔

@rich-sufficool This truck is done by ACME, they did both a Snake and a Mongoose ramp truck. This trucks does stand out in the colors and graphics that are on it. So I can't take any credit for this, this was an ACME creation.

@john3976 I'm glad you responded to Rich. I was going to say something but then I realized he may  have been referring to your white "Garlits Dodge"  ramp truck.

Even I'm not sure if that's ACME-factory. Is it?

The Garlits Ramp Truck I applied the decals, it was a plain white Dodge Ramp Truck. It is sometimes hard to find quality decals let alone find then in 1/18 scale. I think the Garlits truck came out fine as Don Garlits was not really into flashy schemes.

@john3976  I agree. That "plain white truck"  looks great to me! 😎
