the little 1:64 or a bigger one? Seems like a dumb question but I have seen bigger cars by Hotwheels before.

Another MCF member was kind enough to locate one of the Hot Wheels SS montes with cowl scoop for me. I couldn't (still can't) locate one of them anywhere.

(to that MCF member. just so you know, I have not forgotten our agreement and apologize for the delay. nothing I can do about it. sorry.)

I like to buy a pack of HW for my and Debbie's nephews for Christmas. Just as a little extra gift. Generally I find 8 - 10 HW that I feel they would like. Most Chevies. Maybe one furd. And Mopars are good as well.

It was touching to me they said it just wasn't Christmas till uncle gave them a pack of Hot Wheels. But now the youngest are in their early 20s. My oldest nephew just turned 32 in december. And he says he still wants the HWs from uncle.

Hot dang, nice find!! For al ong time Hot Wheels got so unpractical looking. I like a real looking car and I feel they're going back to that look.

I've seen the '69 Talladega. My girlfriend made a Torino shadowbox for me and put that car in the shadowbox.

Next time you're digging, try to find a car that has a bumper mismatched or something like that. I saw someone sell a Hot Wheels Torino on eBay for like $15 becasue the back bumper was on the front and vice versa. Why you would pay that much money for a mistake, I do'nt know, but they did.

There's a Torino near me too Mike. I think of Duane's Torino everytime I see it. I keep wanting to take a picture of it. But it's always parked infront of the owner's house. And don't want to creep them out or something.
