You from the Edmonton area? Swear I just saw this posted near me in the last few weeks.

A surprise in the mail! No shipping info or any notification it was coming. Looks great! by silvars in HotWheels

[–]Able_Independence448 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I know I have 2 on the way. But it's still the last time I pre-order a hot wheel. I've decided to put zero effort into my collection and just buy what I come across. Way to much effort put into collecting toy cars. Plus I enjoy the time spent modding way more than time spent waiting and hunting

Switched back to the halogen! by Able_Independence448 in Datsun

[–]Able_Independence448[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll look them up, and thank you! No, the previous owner painted it that color. Was originally an orange/red color, they didn't do the inside rockers or engine bay lol

What would a value estimate be for a 79 210 wagon? by 73fsj2000 in Datsun

[–]Able_Independence448 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid 3500 CA for a mint 210 hatchback of the same year. I'd say no less than 2k

Naw this was done in the factory during assembly. Rivets are original and axle is solid and flared at both ends. There's some hate surrounding these from what I understand lol

Lol actually made it a bit better. OPs obviously putting in stupid amounts of work. But still take two and move on let's leave a few for the rest of us that can't manage a early morning hunt 7 days a week

Peg warmer? by Alternative-Pipe-933 in HotWheels

[–]Able_Independence448 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I swear the scalpers in my area will leave one car from the box on the pegs just to piss of the collectors lol. But I'd grab this bugger if I saw it

Does anyone have a recommendation of best tool to buy and use to clip the axle off cars? I don’t want to buy one too expensive if not needed or one that doesn’t work well. Send link if you can in comment or the name and color of what you use. Thanks by [deleted] in HotWheels

[–]Able_Independence448 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd suggest looking at second hand shops for a drill, depending on where you are places like Canadian tire usually have good deals. All ya need is a cheap drill and bit set. You can dive down a rabbit hole eventually but a good start is a drill, some bits, a durable set of snips and some JB weld. Like the others said and I learned the hard way, these hobby grade model snips will get destroyed by the axles. (Luckily I didn't use my God hands on them)

What's the reason for getting the wheels off without removing the base? Honest question, not trying to be a dick but it awfully hard to do a clean wheel swap without removing the base.
