1/64 Custom Hotwheels "Tuckin-A"

Wanted to share my latest Hotwheels custom. Built this for a contest. Body is a Hotwheels, rest is either scratch built or parts from other castings. The name "Tuckin-A" came up cause very rearly you'll see a model A with wheels tucking under the body itself. Thanks for looking.

 

Tuckin-A man

 

looks great, but i got to ask, whats your user name about? sorry for going ot. just curious.

 

that is tuckin' sweet!!!

 

sweet ...

 

Thanks guys.

As for my name, I am going to have to get it changed if someone who has the rights to on here can do that for me. My last name is Methot and my nick name has been Marc The Meth. Of course I know that, but everyone else seeing it thinks of something else. Should of thought harder when choosen a name on here. LOL

 

thanks for clearing that up. lol. i think you can change your name through the mods? good luck with the tattoo career.

 

The Hot Wheels rocks. I think I might have gone with a bolder color, but then maybe that would have ruined the realism. The car looks like it could be real if ya just squint a bit! Nice work.

PS Glad to hear the name is innocent enough cause I thought the obvious as well. I wouldn't worry about it. Maybe you just need a tag line in your posts that explains a little, or maybe an explanation in your public profile. Thanks for posting the pics!

 

Bad ass! I did a '57 Chevy kinda like that back in high school.

 

Really sharp A....Wish I had some of my old Hot Wheels..

 

very cool....................

 

Wickedly Just wild Great work,I don't know how you can work that small.

 

Looks great! Love the custom ones! There's a few HAMBers who do them.

 

WOW very wicked

 

I'd like to see more pics of the truck cab.What is it?

 

Thanks peeps. So is it a Model A or a Model B?? Hotwheels never makes anything accurate, so it could be a mixture of both. Hard to tell.

As for the hauler, below is a pic. I found an old tootsie toy truck and just used the cab and made a hauler out of it. I believe it is an english truck. Thats why it look odd ball, but still cool.

 

Here is the best pic I could find of the original.

 

killer....hell of a job.

 

Here is an interior shot:
