Hot Wheels

Cold front……….that’s cute. It’s -27 with the wind chill here in Chicago.

edit…… cars came out great

 

Hobby Lobby (and e-bay, Etsy etc,) sell all kinds of different wheel styles. You might be able to find something very close to what you have on your car.

 

If you come across another of the Surf Rescue ones in that color scheme, let me know.

 

I had an extra one - untill this morning LOL

 

HAHA it's all good! I like the mods to both trucks! The 67 looks good elevated

 

I’m not a vw guy but my buddy gave me a bag of loose premiums for wheel swapping, and this was in it. It’s actually pretty cool and I will leave it alone.

 

A couple of my novas have Chevy rallies on them so that’s the fronts. I’ve been looking for something comparable to my rears. I’m sure I’ll find something. Lotsa a cool stuff out there for sure.

 

What year is your Nova?

 

68 but 68-72 are virtually identical.

 

I have a Premium Fast and Furious 70 that I can post a photo of in a few hours if you want

 

Yeah show it to me. I have quite a few in my collection that can be possible donors but I’m still looking. That being said I’m always open to trade as well. Another thing I need to do is finally buy a display case. I have 98% of my collection in my basement. I had them in my garage forever displayed but moved them in the basement due to a project and never moved them back. I told myself I’d put them back when I got a good display case.

 

Mystery car is a Bugatti

 

Matchbox Taxi

 

Johnny Lightning Pez vw bus

 

Biff Bam Boom series. From 1996. Love this car because of the writing on the car and the card. One of 3 different wheel types.

 

Custom painted drag bus. Has some chips on the rear wing.

 

Yeah I’ve seen this one. I think one I have in my collection will be a better candidate

 

Some of my Porsches. The Johnny Silverhand turbo cost way too much Eddies.

I was buying a bunch of hot wheels at Safeway and some old guy asked my wife if she’s OK with a grown man playing with toy cars and she said anything that keeps him (me) from buying more full-sized ones and filling up the driveway the better.
