*I am on the hunt for one* (hint hint) and was curious as to if it was offered with the Rogers lowboy as a set or was it just offered with the Nelson Ramp set?

It did come in black with a three axle. I cannot remember if it did with a four axle. They rarely come up on Ebay. Black is popular. The black ramp version had some "Hokey" name on the doors. Can't remember exactly the name but it sounded like a dork. CAW

Quinella is wrong (again)... The Black Pete 379 only came with a Ramp Trailer. We never ran black with a lowboy. It is possible that someone mixed them together as we did run black lowboy trailers, just never a black Pete by itself. We did run a very very very nice limited edition with someone's name on the side. Not dorky at all. But it also had a ramp trailer with it! Chuck

That's what I had thought Chuck, it never showed on the old Sword website. I have the Mack flatbed set with a fancy name on the side!

I think the DORKY name on the truck was WHITLEY.

Patrick: I think the Pete with the tubgrinder was just a TWH release. Those Petes that were not Sword releases had plastic wheels. The Sword versions were all metal wheels. And, as much as I hate to admit it, Chuck is right

Hey George Hiram: Do you play the dogs, horses, or jai alai in Florida? Or do you just sit around drinking bourbon? If you play, what is the name of the bet where the first two horses across the finish line win and place in either order? Whitley on the door!!!!

George Hiram: No, I'm not going to New York. I'm scared of them people up thar. Theys kinda weird. Besides, I only get out on the weekends on "work release". I'm doin hard time for knocking a feller in Ohio over the head back in '02. He swindled me out of some big money. You may remember him. Had a funny last name. Somethin like "fork" or "gourd". I can't think of it. But he's a big guy and reeeeaaalll ugly. Owns a toy company that sells blow up dolls and stuff made in Bangladesh. Anyways, nice chatting with you. Always nice to talk with one of you"check" people. I just hope there is some Government money left when I get old!!! Aw-ight. See ya in the funny papers. CAW
