Re: Pic Thread: Customized Hot Wheels,etc

I was unmotivated and bored on Sunday,which usually gets me doing something piddly rather than any of those things on "the list". I had a group of Hot Wheels slated for body swaps or paint jobs,so out came the drill,stripper,and paint. Nothing too special,but customs all the same.
I wish I could knock out all this paint work on real trucks all in one day. First,is the Archie's '70 Blazer. I kept looking at these at the store but passed them up because I don't care for the tv show tampo thing and the way the grilles are it would be hard to do nice color change. It hit me if I masked the upper off I could paint the lower with rallye wheel paint and have a decent looking Blazer:
