Nice cars guys. Those "76" vans, especially. đź‘Ť

And Cano, you are one of the superstars of this thread. John had Yoko, Jordan had gambling, Michael Jackson, let's not go there. The point is........... I forget.
 
Also, Union 76 Dodge A100 van:

OH MY GOD! I have died and went to heaven. :drool: x ∞

Edit:
I've been meaning to upload these for a while now and I finally have.

Bottomless pit of needs & wants. Mostly 'wants' in this thread. :lol:

Soo true! This thread and the model car one (If no one been there, look at Venom, HSV and some of our HW guy's 1:32-1:12s) I'm gonna be broke ASAP :nervous:! But at least I have a few cars left on my list, which everyone knows I don't have yet :lol:.

AOS-
I shouldn't even be spending anymore. I can probably say my paycheques from the last 3 months pay off all the hot wheels I've bought since I started collecting.

How much for one any how?

No posts?

'Kay. Latest arrivals:

DAT 930 911!!!! :eek:

Cool, the Corgi Batboat is realy really rare, specially with the trailer. I also see some 100% cars and one of the few Milestones cars that interest me that I'm still missing, the Track T. I don't remember the name of the enamel blue redline thing, but that's also pretty damn hard to find, it was a one-year-only model like the Sweet 16 or the Superfine Turbine.
 
Not really a fan of the Carbonator. Will be harder to find though since it's a treasure hunt, but if I find one I'll buy it and use it to open bottles. :D

Thank you. ;)
Yeah, the Batmobile and Batboat as well as the Warpath were in a case of cars my uncle had when he was about 13. Sadly though he died many years before I was born while he was still a teenager. I am the guardian of his Hot Wheels. :D
I am proud to say the Batmobile and Batboat are mintier than a peppermint patty. :P
The blue car you were talking about is a very rough Double Header.

Ah, that's even cooler, great story. Keep good care of them.

Also, moar Delivery, this time the 63 Chevy panel with QS livery:

these were red-hot back then because it was a new casting.

Those look baller.

I spent like $60 at walmart today... all for the sake of gathering wheels. Will have a lot of donor bodies as a heads up for anyone wanting cars to customize.

I also bumped into several collectors today who were digging through a bin at Toys R Us. :lol:

Got my hands on that Chevy Gasser, 2 of those tiny F1 toon cars, and some chrome-finish car...Guy who was digging through it looked like a total wreck, bad hygiene, poorly dressed, UGH.

Colour series, guy :)... and because I'm out to pretty up my collection with better wheels.


I tried to stay with cars people will like, so I'm hoping that will sell easier.

Off the top of my head, I will have a lot of 2013 Viper bodies, '64 Lincoln Continentals, Caddy Ciens, and red 1-77s. If anyone wants to customize any of those, I can supply you.

The girlfriend and I found a Big K-Mart store down where I live and go to school, so naturally we had to stop. Especially since my birthday is today and my parents gave me some money. :D
The whole left half is hers and the right side is mine with the exception of the TMIII and this too:




This $uper 'Stang on a short card!
We were checking all of the pegs by each checkout lane on the bottom since those are always full from no one buy any from there. She was crouched down looking through the single peg while I was looking from the top. In all honesty though, I think we saw it at the same time.
She's lucky I'm a good boyfriend and I love her and let her have the car, otherwise I'd be giving you guys a link to a "$uper Mustang on short card" on eBay with a Buy It Now price of $30.

So let this be a lesson to you guys if you don't already do this, CHECK THE CHECKOUT PEGS!
 
Beside the new purchases, I have the following donors:
-4 green Lincoln Continentals
-3 red One-77
-3 Cadillac Ciens
-2 silver Aventadors
-2 black Z4
-2 Viper 2013
-2 red '71 Dodge Challengers
-1 green Dodge challenger Concept
-1 T-bucket bouelvard
-1 8 crate delivery (nostalgia)
-1 white Holden UTE
-1 black Camaro IROC-Z
-1 blue Mini Cabrio S
-1 red '73 Firebird
-1 gray Aston One-77
-1 silver C6 Corvette
-1 HW Racing Chevelle SS '70

PM me if you want to grab any of these donors off me. Will do trades for cruddy unwanted casts.
 
I wanna find a Super Treasure Hunt one of these days. :guilty:

Hachiroku looks nice. I'll pick up couple of those. Too bad Carbonator is a treasure hunt, because I'd use that one, too!

P.S. Nice C3P0!!

I found a $uper before... before I knew what they were. I'm still mad I didn't get that Coronet Super Bee. I was staring at it in the face.

Come to think of it. That Zellers I saw this at was also the place I picked up a Studebaker Avanti... also before I knew about THs. And now they're closed down for Target. Now I'm going to raid Target's stock as well as Walmart's. :mischievous:
 
I never saw a huge problem with sending stuff across the border.


Anyone care to explain what a $uper is and why they are so special?

A Super Treasure Hunt. You know what a treasure hunt car is, right? It's the rare kinds. Super THs (dubbed as $upers here by some $illy people) are even more harder to find. They usually sport a different finish paint job and have rubber tires as opposed to standard plastic wheels.
