Yes, the rust bucket. :P Although, I also noticed looking through my old collection that I had before I started again last year, my first edition Ferrari 599 also has a hole like the Vette. Also a rust bucket then, huh? :lol:
 
Okay, warning, possibly dumb question incoming. Anyone want to fill me in on chase cars, specifically from the Larry's Garage series? I picked up a couple with no mention of being chase/signature series or whatever and was surprised to see the tiny little signature at the bottom of them. I've mostly collected mainline stuff until very recently so my knowledge on these is nonexistent. Looking at ebay though, it doesn't seem like they are really rare or valuable, or maybe at least certain ones. The two I bought were 68 Mercury Cougar and 70 Mercury Cyclone. Were all Larry's Garage chase/signed? And what other series had these signatures? I assume other garage series, any others?

Depends on what it is.

Also:

(keep an eye out for the wheel variation on the Suby. Should be yellow 10SP's)

Dat Lotus M250, STi GRB, 911 GT3 RS 997, 240Z S130 and F458 Challenge! :eek:👍

Added to my most wanted list, right about NOW. ;)

I know I'm gonna seriously cut down. I have way too many now.

Me too, after I get to my main goal to reach 500+ cars and the cars that I need, then I'm going to the pits. But since yesterday, I went out and there's no sign of any new HWs yet! So I'm kinda on a "pitstop" break, oh well. :lol:

Nope. I have the more commonly seen purple one (on eBay that is). I've never seen that white one before though.

Also, while I'm at it, does anyone want a hot wheels avatar? The website at the moment only has 2012 and 2013 card graphics so there's a very small selection to choose from.

Thanks for the heads up. I think the 2011 and up HW artwork is gonna be popular, similar to the South Park animations in pics. 👍

Finally got a picture of the Corvette...error?

So that's the rust bucket :lol:. Goes in a straight line and shoots out smoke at 250hp right? :P:lol:

*insert troll face*

Nah, I'll say a rare and unique exotic piece. :P

*runs away*

:lol:
 
Think I got them all. I didn't mark the Foxbody Mustang as traded since I have 2 of them.

On a side note: the eBay app for Google Chrome is so slow. I won and already paid for an auction hours ago, and the little notification window just now popped up and said "You Won!". :lol:
 
Well I'm just trying to edit the photos with "Traded" on the cars you guys got, and sometimes they stick, sometimes it completely flips back to the original photo. :rolleyes:

Will have to edit the original photos, delete everything in that folder, and re-upload. :indiff:
 
Well the one beside the Scirocco... Actually, can I get the Scirocco as well?

As for the ZR1, I didn't notice the purple one. I keep forgetting Hot Wheels had a ZR1. I suppose I will take that too as well as the silver MBX.
 
A6 beat you to the MBX one, that's why I asked. I'm currently editing the photos for what's taken. Photobucket wasn't cooperating with it's editor.
