Greenlight Topo Fuel Altered Dragster - Black Bandit series

Here is Greenlight Collectibles' Topo Fuel Altered Dragster. It is a 1937 Fiat 500 altered to be a dragster. The model is a little disappointing. It looks good in black, but the front grill is misaligned, and the front wheels don't look quite right.

Dragon Wheels - Volkswagen dragster by Matchbox

Slowly building up my collection of Matchbox Superfast models. Here is #43, the Dragon Wheels. Pretty good shape for its age.

Another recent die-cast show find - Johnny Lightning's 1933 Willys Gasser in USA Racing markings. It is casting # 156, and is a real beaut.

Castline M2 1968 Plymouth Barracuda Hemi - Walmart exclusive

I'm a big MOPAR fan, so was happy to add this model to my collection. M2 does a good job on this casting, but I would have preferred non-operational doors. The passenger side door especially seems out of whack. Don't know enough about drag racing to know if this is based on a real car - I think that SS/B means super stock B class, but not even sure of that.

Hot Wheels '77 Plymouth Arrow Funny Car "Northwest Hitter" (R3806)

Here is an offering from Hot Wheels 2010 Dragstrip Demon series. Outfitted with Real Rider wheels and featuring metal bases, it was the premium series for 2010. This is #10 out of 25 models. Based on a real dragster, the livery looks great.
