    Never seen either of these or was aware Hot Wheels was making cars like these 1/18 scale. Both are neat. I will be adding the Goat to my collection if I ever find one.

    Good haul today. Still no regular .99 cent anywhere around here. Only Real rider Hot Wheel premiums and those are limited. These were all Target had, now they have none.

    Another generic Welly 1/24 69 F100 I did a lot with. Detailed the grill, marker lights, most of the chrome trim, added vent windows and tires and wheels and taillights. Looks so much better now. They still have a blue and white camper edition and a pea green version I have not found yet.
    The red and black 72 F100 is a Moebius model kit that I built as stock. The only mod is the white wall tires and Ford Econoline full wheel covers.
    I park my cars in order of how I like them and with the 1/64s these 2 55 Chevy Gassers are number 1 and 3. I owe William 63 a big thanks for that red Gasser. I set my display up that way to make it easier to decide what stays and has to go. Also keeps me grounded on what I intend to buy. I have no more room. Ill be posting some of the things leaving soon if anyone is interested.

    I love the Chevy gassers but I try to stick with the vw bugs. I do have a lot of customs and I see a lot of those Chevy gassers stock and customized. Glad you like it!

    I don't know what to where to start or what to say. I just came off my 2nd 30-day Lock-up from TacomaWorld.com and had to change my call sign so I could start posting again (I am no longer BigBlueTexas). I scored the highly anticipated HotWheels release and wanted to share. It wasn't a regular score however as I cheated a little and bought 10ea, HotWheels 2020 Tacoma on ebay, from some dude in Japan. In my excitement, I started a thread in the "3rd Gen Tacomas (2016+)" catagory and don't know how to put my thread in this catagory.
