Toys:Hot Wheels`62
I wish I had a real one.The best I can do is buy Hot Wheels for a buck!
By the time I customized them I have an hour or two and another dollar in paint.

Re: Toys:Hot Wheels`62
That red one looks like a '63. What series do these come in?

Re: Toys:Hot Wheels`62
Tim, if I ever make it out to Maryland again, I HAVE to stop by your place. After looking at all the stuff you post on here, I can only imagine what you have laying around. You have to have the coolest collection of useless stuff i've seen in a long time! I love it!
Off topic, but are you by any chance into trains?

Re: Toys:Hot Wheels`62
^...useless stuff.That would be me.Drop me a line for sure.
No,just into auto/truck/bike stuff,mostly.These were all from the same replica.It`s an`08 First Edition.The first pic shows the Hot Wheels paint job in the two variations with wheels changed on the pro-street and chassis changed on the 4wd.The other two are just as they came with custom paint jobs to mimmick factory paint.My own creation.The surfboards came black.Never saw a black surfboard before.The seafoam one has a fawn interior and I decided to do a white grille.The saddle poly one has a custom black interior.I did the pipe tips flat black,too. Not a clear shot.But,shows the metallic better:

Re: Toys:Hot Wheels`62
Groovy rigs...I dig the 4x4. I have a few modified Johnny Lightning models, that were customized.
