Oh, I'm not arty farty either, really. My paintings are meant to be accessible to all, so all responses are valid in my book--even if it's, "eugh".
Well, I can't guarantee I'll find the truck, but I'll certainly look into it. I should also ask if you want the truck in "collectable" condition complete with packaging (which might be nigh on impossible to find) or would your grandson be happy with an unpackaged version. Are there possible alternative items of American t.v. culture he would like?

I don't think I'm on speaking terms with pay-pal anymore. I neglected to tell them I changed my e-mail address and that is apparently a fatal violation of their terms of use agreement. Perhaps we could exchange items? (I am a rabid fan of British t.v. myself and not above acquiring collectables) But that is a discussion to be had after I determine whether it is possible to find the truck at all.
more on this later,
