Post Halloween Arrival

I built a small collection of 510 wagons recently, one of the few cars Hot Wheels makes that I once owned. As a teenager in a punk band during the early 80's, I needed a car to haul my gear and the 510 was perfect for my needs. My Earth cabinet fit on its side in the back with the seat up and the brain sat on the rear seat with drum parts and a human. After scoring a couple 510's at my favorite hunting spot, I grabbed the normal mainline editions and 1 convention car off EBay, this will round out my 510 wagon collection for now and back to normal activity...
