Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

Twin Hot Rods - By Wayne Calder


Here's another look at Wayne Calder's pair of hot rods based on a HotWheels toy called "Tooned Shift Kicker". The passenger area of vehicle allowed for both a truck and a car based Hot Rod. The hot rod on the trailer has 22" wheels with lower profile tires on the front. The engine is an Alloy Forms accessory and the radiator is off the HotWheels piece. The induction system comes from one of the Galoob Corvettes with the scoop off a small Racing Champions dragster. The trailer is an Automobilia kit. The truck's hood and front fenders are off Roco's Opel Blitz. The rear fenders were made from sheet styrene. The rear wheels and tires are off a 1/64 Racing Champions toy and the front ones come off a Matchbox Collectibles' Ford F-350. Also shown in Photo Galleries 225 and 232.
