The Gremlin Guy

While snagging more Rad Racer tow trucks yesterday, waiting for the cashier to service someone else, I wandered the Gotcha aisles near the register, where they put out literal eye candy so the kids want to buy it. I noticed some cars in a package, looked familiar. Yup, Hilco, I found some military versions at K-mart before Christmas, these are automobiles. Price was $2.59 for the pair plus candy. Only 4 vehicles I saw there. Looking at the convertible, it reminds me vaguely of a Pontiac, has a semi-nose and hood raised widely in the center. GTO maybe, early one. plastic bases, of course. Mustang fastback looks like a humpback. LOL. Oh well, I got these two anyway. Jerry |

Muscle Car

The Golden Wheel castings, originally released in the Valvoline 10-Most Wanted Muscle Cars promo set! These castings have quite a history! The last one is indeed a Pontiac GTO convertible. |

Aren't they the old Valvoline "10 Most Wanted" castings, or is my memory playing up...? |
