I grabb'd one already for a custom, no biggie, the wheel's are like an 'ole style hub cap type. Saw one today with a 10s type wheel. Do the vari's on MatChbOx mean anytin'?

I dont know. I do know the models of older cars come with old style hubcaps and new spoked wheels. Personally, I think the old style hubcaps look better.

I agree, give's it more a groovy look. I pick'd it up today jus' in case. As well, one 'o the MatChbOx cat's may want the diff rimm'd one. If not, it'll be givin' to Mr. Roto. :)

I think the MB Beetle would look awesom with the thin spoked new HW wheels on it, but that's me.

Found one with the old style wheels the other day. Looks pretty cool.

And I'll bite...who's Mr. Roto?

Mr. Roto is mine Rotary Tool. I don't 'ave an actually Dremel, so it's Mr. Roto.

Mr. Roto is the equivelent of the Dremell I used to have, until my brother "borrowed" it and never brought it back. Sounds pretty cool.

I used it to turn a yellow HW MBZ SLK into a convertible. Didn't do half bad job. Perhaps if I had it back... :rolleyes:

I'd love to see pics of your work.

All mine custom's are post'd in the custom section. As the thread's get older, I take the pic's out to make room for more pic's
