Volkswagen Drag Truck
The Volkswagen Drag Truck
was first time released in 2004, under the series "First
Editions". This casting is a modified version of the much more
popular Volkswagen Drag Bus. It was released under many color
variations, from white yellow to blue and red. In has been part of
many special series, Classics series 2, Since '68, 2007 Red Line
Club Membership, 7th Annual Hot Wheels Nationals
Convention, Garage, Red Line Club (HWC membership), with the last
one being released in 2010 under the Happy New Year 2011 serie. The
model in the pictures is a metallic white/black, with "Phils
Aircooled Performance", unpainted base, chrome rims RR5SP. It
is the only casting i have and it was given to me by a friend on YouTube, it is originaly signed by Phil Rheilman and it was sent all
over from USA. I still dont have it's big brother, but i hope i can
find one in the future.

Shelby Cobra 427 S/C
The Shelby Cobra is a very
old model, it was released for the first time in 1983 under the
"1983 Hot Wheels – Hot Ones" series. It is based on the
original car, also known as "Classic Cobra" and it was
designed by Carol Shelby and Larry Wood. It has also been released in
all the color variations since then. Some of the special series that
has been part of are : Treasure Hunts in 1995, General Mills mail-in, Hall of Fame, Ultra Hots, Garage series. The model in the pictures
is a 2010 release, under the serie "Hot Auction",
metallic burgundy with white rally stripes, chrome base, chrome 10
SP wheels. I also have a grey variation of it from 2011, but i have
none of the special series models. I also like it for the opening
hood feature, revealing the engine.
