    when i got to work tonight, this was sitting out in our front parking lot.
    the other truck that's with them is here to have work done.
    i tried to get the guy to unload it......lol, but he wouldn't
    this isn't very traditional, but i still think it's cool as hell.
    seeing this thing up close like this, is just awesome. of corse, i didn't have my camera with me, so i grabbed the shop camera to take some pics of it.
    i was into collecting hot wheels for a long time, so...i had to take pics. of it.
    thought i'd share them with you guys.

  2. Now I am pissed off at my mom...I had, literally hundreds of early 70's hotwheels and she, I know you have heard this before, tossed them out...used to spend all of my paper route money on those...damnit...
     
  3. That's pretty cool. I always wanted to display a car at a show that looked like it was inside one of those model cases with a wood floor and plexiglass box over the top and a big brass plaque showing the year/model, but man it would be nearly impossible.

    Cool...everybody loves Hot Wheels.
    Also a good reason to always have a camera handy.
    You never know what you'll see...

    Ah, I see it's green now, and those hideous torque thrusts taken off. Also see it's still running the WRONG ENGINES! The HotWheels one has hemis.....

    That's bitchin'! I saw the Twin Mill when it was on display at the Petersen Museum about 5 months ago.
     
  13. Whatever happened to that life size version of Way to Fast ? There was a thread on here a while back, lot of bashing the car if I remember correctly.

    Wasn't aware of a Way-2-Fast, just the Deora II.
     
  18. I think that's something I particularly like about these pictures. They remind me of the cars that are kept in their packaging. You want to tear it open and get your hands all over it but, for now, it's stuck behind the plastic...

    Does anybody know if this thing is a runner?
