wae and EastSideTim...

Just wanted to share this.  My friend in L.A. is a designer for HotWheels.  This year he did an Impala SS and sent me one.  Just thought I would share.  Tim, your SS now has a Mattel pedigree.

I miss working with Brendon.  Mattel was just down the street from our custom shop.  Every year they would come to us with their flagship/feature/SEMA car for the year.  We would build a full-scale version that they would then turn into a Hot Wheels for the SEMA show.  It was nice to have a hand in building a couple SEMA hot rods and originate a Hot Wheels

Sadly, the shop owner had to close down and move somewhere more profitable.  :(
