    Except for the bronze 57 Chevy these all received wheel swaps. The Thunderbird SC is a old Matchbox car I've had around since the late 80s.The 55 Chevy Gasser was originally one of those white ones they flooded all the stores with with Gold wheels and engines. I was counting the 55 Chevy's I have and its up to 28.512023 hot wheels 151.jpg 512023 hot wheels 155.jpg 512023 hot wheels 161.jpg 512023 hot wheels 168.jpg

    These are for William63. I went to a car cruise in Ravenna Ohio a couple weeks ago that had 4300 cars show up including a couple dozen VWs like these. The town only has 11000 people. They call it Octane Nights and when the show ends they have everyone rev their engines and call it the Ravenna Rumble. It gets bigger every year. I rode my bicycle in and chained it to a pole because you can get anywhere near this event for parking. 15000 spectators. The show started at 3 but cars were parking at 7:30 in the morning. The Type 2 Micro Bus had large bags of seeds in back stamped "Home Grown." I wonder what that meant? It also had a bar inside made from the front of another Type 2. ravenna cruise2023 057.jpg ravenna cruise2023 071.jpg ravenna cruise2023 074.jpg

    Must have been a great show! Second vw was chopped. Not easy to do on a vw bug.

    Original 1970 Topper Bug Bomb in dark green. Later mid 90’s Johnny Lightning in a lighter green. The originals have exhaust pipes that are separated. On the newer ones the pipes are stuck together. People are asking stupid money for the original ones!!
