So I get the day off and I'm wandering around Target and decide to make a run down the toy aisle and look for any new Stangs... I'm hanging out in the Hot Wheels section and I look up to see MY F'N CAR! And those goofballs only had one in stock. DANG! Check this baby out!!!

 

Does it really have the hood and rocker stripes just like yours???

 

THAT IS F'n SWEET!

 

that's a sweet custom!

 

Oh geez... looks like I reeled in the big fish on this one. Brad, I stripped this car early in '06 and found myself with some free time. So I finished the project. I've got a Revell 1/25th plastic model I plan on finishing exactly like WldTang, but that won't be for a little while. Here's a few more shots now that the cat is out of the bag, copyright 'Hook, Line, and Sinker Productions'...



Check out the 4 vents, dual cup holders, and accurately detailed dashboard. Not bad for a .99 cent Hot Wheel!

 

OK, I'm confused -so you designed the car for Mattel?

 

If saw that on the pegs...id buy all of em!

 

Nah, they would never spring for the two tone seats! It's a very close model of my personal car...

 

Thanks, Luke. The idea of putting it onto a card was pure afterthought. I'd purchased the '69 Mach 1 and when it said "New for 2007" down the side, I had to 'borrow' the card to close the deal... The fact I snookered Brad was just a bonus...

 

yeah! i'm an avid HW collector so i figured it out i wish they would do that design

 

While I have a Revell 1/25th plastic kit in the works, I'm thinking of getting an autoart 1/18th and strip that and make a diecast model of my car, too. Not a big fan of 1/18th... prefer 1/25th... but how cool would that look at car shows?

 

Awww Man, You Had Me! I Was In Wal Mart Looking Through The Hw's. Lol Totally Awsome Job... Awsome Car Also, Can't Wait To See Your Kit!!

 

Thank you...

 

You nailed it, right down to the orange peel paint, just like the factory.

 

pitpup- I happened to see a post you left on 08-12-2006:

"So what, we're deleting posts now? GeezOhMan... I'm done with you guys. Could care less what everyone here has to say. Adios and have a nice life."

I guess you changed your mind? LOL

And yes, this is

 

Dude, what the F is your problem?

 

What, you trying to start a fight now? I was just asking him about an earlier post. No need to get your panties in a wad--lighten up!

 

My panties are just fine, thanks for your concern. I'm just curious why you were bringing up a post made before you were even a member here. ...but somehow I'm the one trying to start a fight.

 

Whatever.... the post was for pitpup anyway.

 

Ever think that posts like yours were one of the reasons Stan stopped posting in the first place? i dont want to add to the fire so to speak, but stan is an actual friend of mine, and you really shouldnt bother him about it.


anywho,

stan, how did you do the rocker stripe? and that car loos sweet with spoiler delete!!!!
