Thought I'd share a pic of an interesting car I have. It's a Mercedes 300-SE made by "Krazee Wheels". Has anyone ever seen these before?

I have never seen any other cars like this.

These Krazee Wheels were a creation of Zee/Zylmex in the late 70's early 80's. The cars were a rehash from castings that were made in the late 60's early 70's with larger wheels and axels (the original cars another cheapy dimestore knock-off off of Hot Wheels of course - I collec them just the same).
In my opinion, a waste of a decent car to look goofy, likley a take on the Roth artwork bubble gum stickers (I can't recall what they were called, but the cars had huge exagerated features with wide eyed monster types driving them etc).
modsquad, was it Rat Fink ?

Hello Tone,
Yes, I believe it was Rat Fink. Something like that. I had zillions of the stickers I used to buy at 7-11.
