Hot Wheels

@Kilo Charlie Do you have/want the rest of the orange 70th series?

 

I actually have them all except the Porsche but thank you for checking !

 

Same here

 

Hell yeah! A buddy of mine found two at Ollies. One was heavily damaged. He bought the undamaged one for himself.

 

Found this at Wally world today.

 

100% cool set... it's hard to decide to open or not, but for me, I opened one because I got a second

 

Kiddo loves tow trucks so he has been towing around all of his cars with it.

 

Mail call. Haven’t seen anything on the pegs so I found something I’ve been wanting awhile for the right price

 

Heck yeah! Tow Trucks are awesome!

 

I like this one myself.

 

I have that one!

 

These are all 1/24 model kits. The Panella Trucking Austin was an actual Gasser. The 46-47 Ford was originally a police car model kit and was a bitch trying to build as a Pro Streeter. Hot Rod Magazine featured an orange version of this car owned by a guy called Fat Jack. I named the kit Fat Jack. That motor and those rear slicks were determined not to fit. The 66-67 Falcon was a dirt track kit that was fun to build. Wish they would have made roll cage fit up higher than it does and I laughed when I realized my solder exhaust has started to sag. Looked good for years.

 

The dirt track car is a 1/24 scale 65 Fairlane. Fun car to build and if you screw up here and there it doesnt matter. The old Studebaker Hawk is a Mean Machine. Not sure who makes the 1/64 63-Corvette split window but I love the way it looks.

 

Custom drifter, combined parts from the red and white one. There’s a blue one too

 

Found these at Wally’s today

 

Bastards getting you to buy truck and trailer now.

 

Moved both my girls back to college this week. And yesterday went to my friends house to pick up the last of his cars and this big display cabinet. Was worried about getting it home without it breaking. It’s big and all glass. Now just have to make room for it and the other one just like it I already had.

 

That's awesome! Hopefully it made it home ok!

 

It was a slow ride but it made it. In the garage for now until I talk the wife into turning the spare bedroom into a hot wheels room.

 

Fingers crossed you can twist her arm enough without getting a black eye! HAHA
