I did a wheel swap and it still looked like something was missing on this HW Cuda casting... I painted the bumpers, the grill, turn signals and head lights, the rear panel and the tail lights... Sure added alot to the appearence !!!

Sweet! Much better looking.
If only Hot Wheels would spen an extra penny for paint.

I'm sure it's not the penny worth of paint that keeps HW's from adding extra detail to the Dollar Mainline cars.
More like the extra machinery,tooling,labor,cost, etc.,etc., needed for the extra steps.

Great job Stang,
Very sharp with that Silver paint.

Nice there

very clean

where did the sweet wheels come from

Great job on the detailing! It's amazing what one can do to a basic casting that can change the look altogether (and for the better).
Thanks for the pics.

I agree 100%! Those $1 hw's become something real sweet with just some extra detail and real riders.

anyone do something with the HW Hyundai Tibouron? The one with orange windows & tampos all over it?? That would be a nice custom jobby!

Wow, great example of how a little can do so much! Looks great!

Great work Steve.:thumbsup:

Looks nice, and it's a Mopar. :)

Nice Job, details and wheels make or break a casting, & you made it!!!
