Hot Wheels

I don’t know how many colors came out at this show but I do know there was a blue one that I don’t have.

 

These are a few I had redone recently.
The teal 55 Hot Wheels Gasser is one of the white ones with gold wheels I posted last week.
The lime green 40 Ford Woody was a 1/43 with a repaint and new wheels.
The white 1/24 Corvette had turned yellow from the sun over the years and was repainted, It is a dealer promo made by AMT.
The Dodge Sweepside pickup I decided to just clean it up and detail it some. It is a 1/24 bank.

 

Ok Gentlemen I could use a little help here. What I have for trade here is a (1) 1968 Dodge Power Wagon, (2) 2021 Ford Bronco (I've only seen two of these since the new Bronco came out), and (3) 2020 Dodge Ram 1500. What I'm looking for is a 2015 Dodge Ram 2500 pickup truck Super White 4-door. My son owns this pickup and his birthday is coming up. (Bonus points if it comes with a white camper shell just like his). Not sure if Hot Wheels or Matchbox even made one but if they did, I'd sure like to have it. And I'm willing to pay for S/H both ways. Any and all offers appreciated. Thanks for looking. Bryan

 

I’ve seen the Dodge Ram not sure what the years were. If you couldn’t get it in white, would you consider painting it?

 

No I'd like to keep it enclosed in the factory packaging. I did consider that though......

 

I entered diecast 2015 Ram quad cab and had a little bit of everything turn up with all years from the 90s to 2019.
Maybe you could scroll thru all the pictures posted and see if you can find a match. So many were not year specific. A lot of them had where you could buy them.

 

awesome thanks. quad cab sounds more modern than "4-door". Lol.

 

William 63 might recognize the wheels on the Blue Chevelle and Orange Datsun. Thanks.
The yellow 40 Ford Woody has to be my favorite with the recent wheel swaps I have done. The Chevelle and Datsun also had all the side stripes removed.

 

Those all look great! Love the Chevelle

 

Wish they’d release a Toyota pickup like that Datsun

 

Same here. Hot wheels did have the 4 wheel drive 80s Tacoma out. Once in awhile I will see one usually black or red.
Matchbox had a quad cab 3rd gen but I passed . I didnt think it was well done. I think there maybe another version of it coming out.

 

Vatozone score

 

I hope Vatozone is Autozone. I would like to get one of those. Have a christmas gift card to burn for there. I know where I am going tomorrow.

 

Vatozone = AutoZone

 

WANT!

I finally found a couple of premiums at Walmart this past weekend. They still have not stocked the main display of Hot Wheels. It's been almost 2 months now. I'm not sure what the deal is.

 

Nice! It’s the same up here at the Walmart I go to in NH. Not a lot to choose from and a lot of empty spaces.

 

Today I am posting some of my stock builds from over the years. The 63 Deville is a Johan kit I had done in the late 80s. The Wildcat and Grand Prix are AMT premium releases from around 1990 and the 56 TBird I am not sure about anymore. It was done around 1985. The paint and trim is faded from being dusted over the years and I see a door handle is missing as well. I had built 2 of them and gave the other to an uncle who had that same car.
He died a couple years ago and his wife sold the T-Bird never thinking anyone in the family would want it. He had a 37 Chevy drag car that belonged to Doze Martin and a host of 55 thru 57 Chevys as well. She didn't know I had dibs with him for the 37. It was a sad day when I found out it was gone.

 

If anyone has an Ollies around them they were stocked with a lot of Hot Wheels I had never seen before yesterday. They also had a huge selection of the military Jeeps and trucks which I think were Matchbox. I never saw those before either. Still didn't buy any but enjoyed getting to raid the racks before vultures showed up. Our Walmart is usually picked clean.
