Thanks!

Any questions, let me know. I am always up for conversation when it concerns small scale professional cars.

Ya know Charles I was on a quest for a while to find the "superfast" with the tri-bar spinner wheels. Found one on ebay & bid on it, ended up winning it, and the guy mailed me one with the "standard" wheels. I wrote him & he said no problem he'd ship another one. He did... same thing AGAIN. He got kinda nasty the 3rd time & I said "Check the auction... I know what you're doing... you put up the hard-to-find version for auction & get $10.00 for it & then mail out the one everyone already has several of!" He finally admitted he had none of the hearses with the tri-bar spinner wheels (pictured to the right below) & mailed me a 3rd hearse if I promised not to report him to ebay. Never did get the one I wanted, but have a stockpile of the other version!

Wow Sarah! I really like that one.

That one has got to be hard to find!

Who came up with the idea for that (if I even need to ask)? Very unique and a great use of the hearse.

Hi Charles, I have the white, black and grey on blister packs and the standard superfast with a box. Do you take them out of the packs or do you get them in boxes? Is the Scooby Doo one rare? I have looked it up and can only find it as part of a multi pack

Jon,

I tend to collect 2 of each. I have at least one of each color hearse open and one still on the blister cars packed away in a box. The Superfast were easy to open and keep the package complete. So, I have just 2 of the Superfast. One with each wheel variation.

You are correct with the Scooby Doo hearse. It was ONLY available in a 5 pack with other Scooby Doo themed cars. If you need one of the Scooby Doo hearses, I have one (1) extra here. It is already out of the 5 pack. I can put it aside for you and bring it to the meet next year.

Love the white over metallic blue. Only way this would've looked better is with 3-bar spinners~

Yes Jon - one of these is yours as well.
