Perhaps your guidance could avert a terrible financial catastrophe... Other interesting finds I have that the same information could be useful on is: ClodBuster MIB BullHead MIB Super Hornet MIB Midinght Pumpkin MIB I am sure you people are all qualified to provide answers.. Look forward to all response. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
netsmithUK 488 Posted October 9, 2002 If its any use I've recently been offered a MIB Blackfoot for £200 (or maybe it was £250) And MIB Pumpkins are now regularly appearing on ebay for just $76.00, from asia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have heard of slight differences between old ClodBusters and new ones. Something like the new one does not have a Chevrolet logo on the grille. I don't know if this is true or not, nor if anyone cares from a collector's standpoint. I think the Blackfoot is worth a bit more. If you just want a Blackfoot to drive, tower also sells the King Blackfoot, which looks similar to the old one. If you want to collect it, or hope it goes up in value, it's not the same.

TWINSET 1793 Posted October 9, 2002 I got a NIB Bullhead from holiday123 - Japan on ebay for $159 (buy it now was $179) + $50 shipping to England, and they have sold a couple previously. May be worth keeping an eye on them. Their email is chow@cubic-works.com Edited by - TWINSET on 09 Oct 2002 16:06:57 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The later kits have nothing on the grille, and on the manual pix its visibly blanked out. Clods are so many made/sold & plentiful 2nd hand, they're not huge amongst collectors except as a fill-in kit (it _is_ #65). Probably more collectability with the original Juggernaut "1".

bholio 0 Posted October 9, 2002 So, does anyone care about the Chevy Logo? Is it something to look for? Or is it too obscure of a detail to bother with? Or is it time to start carefully examining those used clod bodies which appear on ebay all the time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WillyChang 1814 Posted October 10, 2002 Nah, I personally don't look for it. Might add $5 to the value of your NIB kit, but that's about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
