When I had first seen a Hot Wheels "Poppa Wheelie" car, I hated it. But when I found out they were plastic bodied, I had to do something with it. So here are a few of my Poppa conversions. ....ALL of them together cost me less than $5 (talk about a cheap hobby).
Here's the original with the first conversion.
The wing was cut and narrowed, from the rear deck of a HW Maximum Leeway
Then did a blue one (not quite done).
Then sort of a rat rod truck. The hood is the roof that was removed.
Then back to the first one to do over. Front is from a broken AFX Grand Prix car.
