![]() Today's car of the day is Hot Wheel's 1984 Nissan 300ZX. ![]()
![]() For more information and pictures of the real car please visit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_300ZX ![]() A great cast from Hot Wheels for details, wheels, and almost all the paint variations they issued. I also have this one in an extremely playworn yellow, that used to be the best car to push around the playsets, because the wheels in combination with the suspension made for the smoothest ride ever! This particular example came from my room mate's good friend, to which I detailed- as usual; to my heart's content. ![]()

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!

One of my favorite Hot Wheels- and one of the very few with opening doors! |

New casting? Quick! Take it apart!
|
Was it an original HW casting, or was it picked up from another manufacturer??? |

If it is a HWs casting they did a superb job on it. Noirguru you did a fine job detailing it out too! |

I love the variations! Just as a by the way guys, I removed the stripes. The sides look nice with the original tampos. |

I like Dean-O's de-tampoed yellow version. I think all the color variations would have looked much better without the decorations. They look like dollar store car decorations....I think Hot Wheels does a much better job on current cars. I'm sure we'll never see this car as a mainline again, too many moving parts for their austerity program. |
