I picked this up today. $5.98 plus if you have a military discount you'd get 10% off.
Yes, it's 1/48 scale.

I did notice a car rack near the self-checkout. I will have to give it a closer look next visit. Thanks for sharing.
I grabbed a couple of those at CVS, a white one and a blue one. They also had red. I believe I've the DHL van in the supermarket car rack.

Are they lettered or plain?
I'll have to go and look at those too.
Edit: I got the plain white one now too.
Good find Joe,
Many, if not most of the vehicles at Lowes are 1/35th, so it was nice to get this 1/48 DHL,..

What is printed on the bottom? Maybe they have 60's & 70's items?
Too modern for me.

The corvettes at Big Lots in my photo would work for your era.

Good to see more 1/48 scale roadway models, especially quality models with attractive pricing. I have a lot of 1/43 scale roadway models and most of them work well enough (some of them seem to actually be closer to 1/48) but would like to see the 1/48 scale market grow.
Oh boy, this is bad. Now I want the UPS version too. Kind of like engines, see it, want it!
Kinsmart has been on ebay a long time. I have the 1:38 wrecker in the town scene. Nice detail!
Nice find.
Yesterday while I was out shopping, I went to two different Lowes looking for the DHL van but struck out both times. Now I’m determined to track one down. The hunt is on!
side note, does anyone use 1/46 scale vehicles? There was a few that caught my eye at Lowes.
Sirt, thanks ... just ordered the UPS & DHL $16.95 for the pair and did not have to leave the house .
Saw a couple at my local Lowe's in E. Rutherford NJ, too modern for my layout.
Frost was heavy this morning so I went the same route as @jjames9641 and took @SIRT’s eBay suggestion.
Surprised to see a UPS van offered, as there was some stink about a UPS boxcar a few years ago (probably licensing?). I view these in stores, but like Scotie above, l have seen none from my earlier modeled era. I pounced on Hallmark GMC 1936 pickups, so look at displays, but older vehicles may not appeal to contemporary kids these are marketed to ..
A reminder....per out TOS, no links to ebay. You can mention that you found something on ebay but no links please! Folks are certainly welcome to go there and shop but ebay does nothing to support your forum and in fact competes with the smaller sponsors here.
Well I completed this collection of vehicles this past week. LoL! Thanks @Engineer-Joe for initiating this hunt!
This is perfect for my layout. Thanks for the heads up!
