THE BOILERMAKERS™ FAN’S DREAM TAILGATE!

Any Purdue University Boilermakers™ football fan will tell you that some of the best action at a Boilermakers™ game happens at the tailgate parties held in the parking lots around Ross-Ade Stadium.

Now, The Danbury Mint has created a spectacular, one-of-a-kind collectible model of what, to any Boilermakers fan would be the greatest, "fan-tasy" truck ever...the Purdue University Boilermakers™ Pickup.

Crafted from more than 150 individual parts!

The Purdue University Boilermakers™ Pickup is meticulously crafted of die-cast metal in the large 1:24 scale to permit a high level of intricate detail. Based on the 1953 Chevy Pickup, this model is not only great to look at and display, but it is also loaded with plenty of moving parts and working features.

Open the hood to view the accurately re-created "Thriftmaster" 6-cykinder engine with its individual spark plug wires. Both doors open to showcase the inside cab with its detailed dashboard gauges and intricate window cranks.

At the rear, you can lower the smoothly operating tailgate to access the trucks and along the running board you’ll find a removable spare tire, complete with Purdue University cover. All four genuine rubber tires have chrome hubcaps and spin freely. The front wheels turn with the steering wheel. When you turn this stunning model over and examine the chassis and suspension details, you know you’re holding a classic collectible that you will enjoy for years to come.

Attractively priced; convenient to acquire.

The Purdue University Boilermakers™ Pickup is officially licensed by Purdue University. You can acquire this unique model for the attractive price of $145, payable in 5 convenient monthly installments of just $29 (plus a total of $7.50 for shipping and handling).
