I figured that I would show off a few of my growing collection of Chevys... Some have called me obsessed...lol I say that I like the trucks...lol :crazy: :lol: WES

a few more

Wes what's up with the yellow one, what year is it?
The one with the graphics on the door?
And how did you get so many of those new Hotwheel trucks?

Oh, you spotted that one huh.... lol That one can only be found in the figure 8 track crash set. It is one of the 10 cars that come with the set. I have found them at toys-r-us for $39.95 a set. Expencive way to get a hot wheel, but if you have a nephew or little brother buy them the set and trade the truck out with a green one...lol I have 2 of them...lol How do I get so many? Lots of trips to the stores..lol and lots of freinds that watch out for them for me. WES

dude, that's insane!
Is that yellow one the same as the one that also same in the 6 pack of cars?

I have 2, a '64 Impala and the Von Dutch '72 truck in Black.

OK Now I am going to have to keep a watch out at the Toys R Us store for that darn one. Unless.....
BTW I finally got my 69 red and yellow one from Ebay

Is the garden truck in there somewhere :)

Nice, huh, not sure if I should call it a collection or an obsession. :)

I just picked up one of the Johnny Lightining Working Class green Blazers today at a hobby shop. I thought it was a great score!

I think Wes has all of the Hot Wheels trucks that were destined for Canada, 'cause I can't find a single one in all of the stores I've been into.:whine:

So WES,was that your camp I saw last night set up in the wally world?You must be living there to have found so many.I looked and did not find one single 67-72 Chevy of any size or description.
BTW nice collection.

Wes - you are the reason why I've only found two green redline 69 stepsides on pegs around here :lol:

Nice collection - how is that panel truck coming along?

Wes,
that's one hell of a collection--now i gotta go find that yellow one:dohh:
i've got a bunch of the green ones but thats all i can find around here, just picked up a couple more yesterday at wally world.
MERRY CHRISTMAS:metal:

omfg thats a lot of hot wheels

Thanks a lot guys... I wondered why anyone would want to camp at Wally World..lol Here is a few of my Johny Lightning Blazers, some green and some red..lol A few 65 stepsides, and a few 50 Suburbans too... Longhorn Man, The only way to get the yellow truck right now is to buy the complete figure 8 track kit. It comes with 10 cars of witch the truck is one. I bought to of the kits for Christmas gifts and replaced the yellow truck with a green one..lol WES
By the way the Panel is coming along. I just about have the body done. I just have the custom work left to do, and it will be ready to use the high build primer and paint.

can anyone tell me if the hotwheels stepside trucks come in black, i found a green one. no black.

nope, no black ones yet.
I painted one of mine in black primer...but that's just who I am. :D

Hey WES,
How about a picture of the figure 8 track box so I know what one to find

There all wrapped up now. If I buy another at toys r us I will try to remember to take one of it. WES

I have been trying to find the gold 69. I heared it was an exclusive for k-mart
exclusive is this true? Also is the yellow one a 69 also?

BustedTruck, Yes the gold truck is a K-mart exclusive, but more than that it only came out during K-mart days cases. You would have to be realy lucky to find one now. The yellow truck is a 69 chevy also. It came out in the "Criss Cross Crash" track only, and I have only been able to find that at Toys-R-Us. It was one of 10 cars that come with that track. The cost of that game is $39.95. You buy the game you get the truck. I am pretty fortunate, because I have relitives and freinds that like this game, so I trade them out of the yellow truck for a green one. Don't tell anyone but I have 5 now..... (Not for sale) Anyway here is a picture of the game and my latest score to boot, so you guys know what to look for. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

Got a close up of the yellow one I can see the logo but not what it is and the model year of the truck. That is cool though. Maybe if I buy some parts I can get one ;)

Did you put the yellow one on a card? It doesn't look like it has its own card in the picture.

:jdp: WES,
Thanks for the picture of the Cris Cross Crash

I carefully remove a green truck from it's card and then replace it with a yellow truck. Just reglue the blister to the card. If you look close you can tell it was done, but from a distance they look pretty good. I will try to get a close up lator, but it is the 69 Chevy stepside pickup. WES

Hey WES. Is this the same yellow. I got mine a few years in a five pack of Hot Wheels. They also put a purple one in the five packs too, which I have. AND the purple one also was manufactured in two different countries. One has blue taillight and the other has red.

No, the ones that I have are different. Here is a picture. WES

Ya, I have both taillight colors of the purple stepside, but none with graphics. I like the yellow one and would probably like the purple too. You have any of those for sale? Let me know. WES

Here is another cool one that I have...

Here's my purple with decals. No purples for sale; I have the two plain and one with decals. They're all loose. Need to find them in single packaging.
The one with decals is a darker shade of purple than the other two.

Here is another cool one that I have...

Dang WES, where do you keep popping these things out of, they just keep multiplying.:lol:
My collection is growing but slowly, It's darn hard to find the odd ones like that 7 up one and the yellow one, but now that I know where it's at I am going to get me one of those yellow ones.
Where did you get that dang 7-up one?

Is the Mountain Dew Hot Wheels? When did it come out?

I just thought that I would show you the mountain dew one. It is a custom painted one that I liked. The only one that I know of..lol I just picked up one of the yellow ones from the 5 pack and may have found a purple one. We will see..lol I have about 15 or so plain purple, some with red taillights and some with red. WES

damn...

Here is one that I am buying that I am waiting on getting here also. WES

WES<
You got to see if he has another one, Pretty Pretty Please....
I want it

Here is a different one....
Redline SKYSHOW CUSTOM FLEETSIDE (http://cgi.ebay.com/VINTAGE-HOTWHEELS-REDLINE-YELLOW-SKYSHOW-FLEETSIDE_W0QQitemZ270073809619QQihZ017QQcategoryZ1172QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

Also found the Redline truck (like the green one) but it was brown in color.
And a Redline truck (the green one) with the wrong card attached. It has the "3 of 5" nova card attached.

Man is that a little too rich for my blood

Toys-R-Us has them for $39.95. WES

Which ones that POW one?

The POW one is just like the mountain dew one. It is a custom painted one. I am going to see if I can get him to do about 10 of them for me and maybe sell a few. WES

Toys-R-Us has them for $39.95. WES

We don't have a Toys-R-Us anymore. Closed.
The criss cross are selling for around $50-$75 on ebay. You should buy up everything you can WES and start listing.

Ya, I should... I can take all of the yellow trucks out and replace them with the green trucks and then sell the yellow trucks..lol WES

These are addictive. I wanted the Johnny Lightning Blazers and now I have bought every variation I can find (and spent my whole paycheck too).:crazy:

The POW one is just like the mountain dew one. It is a custom painted one. I am going to see if I can get him to do about 10 of them for me and maybe sell a few. WES

I'll keep my fingers crossed

I put 3 of the criss cross crash games up for sale on ebay that I switched the trucks out on. We will see if they sell. If so, I will buy more and switch the trucks out to come up with some yellow trucks to sell. WES

I just went nutz on Evilbay.
Andy I will have around 6 or so when I am done
The rest after my doubles will go up here, maybe I can get my hands on some yellow ones.
I PM'd the white fox and POW guy asked him for some more too. not to step on you toes WES. Just really like them.

if you get anotheer one painted with the POW LOGO on it i'm in for one.send me your pay-pal when you do please.[nam 73-75].

Wes,
I found the guy that makes the POW ones, he said that he has 15 available for me if I want them, He stated that he could put any decal on it that we wanted, even your business logo. Let me know what you think, If he had access to more of these trucks than he could make some more, I just thought that maybe we could get one with a board logo on it and offer it up for sale here on the board. Any suggestions?

Wes,
I just thought that maybe we could get one with a board logo on it and offer it up for sale here on the board. Any suggestions?

I would like one if you could do that.

Wes,
I just thought that maybe we could get one with a board logo on it and offer it up for sale here on the board. Any suggestions?

I think you should run that idea past Josh first, using his logo.

I am going to that is why I posted the Poll question,wouldn't do anything without his permission.

Cool. Didn't see the poll til you said something. I voted yes.

If Josh wants to sell Hot Wheels with the board logo on them that would be a good idea for him. He has worked hard over the years developing this site and logos and products with the logos should be his to proffit from, not mine. Maybe you should try to talk him into doing it. Meanwhile I did buy 10 of the Criss Cross Crash games and will be switching out the trucks for the green ones and will be selling the yellow ones. I will post a for sale add when I am ready to ship some out in the 67-72 parts board, so be watching for them in the next couple of days if you want one. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

I'll be watching out for them, not trying to make any money on these I just figured that because you had so many of them available that you might like to sell some with your logo on them.

a word.....

D-A-M-N!!

Hey, is there a gold redline one also?? Man, I though I did pretty good by going to wal-mart at 2:30 am and scoring 12 greenies.....but dang!

I haddn't even thought about having custom ones made with my logo. I had thought about contacting Mattel about doing them though... Not cost prohibitive though... lol. I might just contact the guy doing customs and ask what he would charge if I provided the trucks. The answer about the gold truck is, yes they are red lines also. WES

So dang addicting.....so many more of these things than I thought there were. I didn't even know about the purple with decals.

can I see a close up pic of a green one in a package?

Wes,
Yeah I finally got a yellow one, I went to toys r us today for my sons birthday and so we got him the criss cross crash set, Now I only need to find one more yellow one for my brother.

Well I switched out a few more. I think that I have 14 or 15 now. I will be listing a few for sale in the parts board. It is hard for me to sell them...lol They look so cool sitting in a line like that.. WES

Here is a closer shot of the green one in a package... WES

Wes,
Please put me in line for 2 of them.

You have a PM and the ones that I am willing to sell for now are on the 67-72 parts board. WES
