Its been quite a while since I’ve done a 1:1 Scale post, and this one certainly makes a fine addition to the category. While out doing errands this past weekend, I spotted this excellent custom Jeep when it cruised by me here in Massachusetts. As it turns out we had the same destination, so I pulled out the camera phone for a quick “photo-op!” As you can see by the second picture, the owner is proudly displaying his love of Hot Wheels! Click either image for a closer view.

If you’ve spotted someone publicly displaying their love of Hot Wheels (or any other diecast for that matter!) we’d love to post about it! Send your pictures and related information to blog [at] diecastaudio.com and we’ll post it up!
