Mattel Disney Pixar CARS: Wrecked Hudson Hornet – John in Mo
I think John in Mo did too good of a job …
Now, I’m all sad – it’s like watching parts of Toy Story all over again!
What, where’s the newspaper background? Since you made me sad, I can be all demandy …
Why, he’s not even sepia toned. Hrumph!
I could not find my sepia filter so …
Everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together lives within my heart
Thanks John in MO … though you owe us now for making us all touchy-feely. You owe us a to-scale Field Dump Truck from CARS 2. 🙂
Hey can we get this loaded onto the customs page somehow?
Check it out!

$350…. SOLD!
Another cool custom, John in MO!
awesome job.
Wow, very inspirational….
I may accessorize with few holes….hehehe
love it!
neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed it
I do need it.
Beautiful! I will trade my Tex Dinoco w/o Mirrors variant for it. 🙂
That’s what happens when you can’t wait for Mattel to realease it!! 😛
Ha Ha I have a few of these…..I have a great ‘wrecked Flo’ if anyone needs one…
Also, today on Disney store online they have the crab boat diecast and the siddeley diecast for sale. They look cool!
Great job John. My son has made a “crashed” version of quite a few of his earlier Cars. We have Crashed Mia’s and Tia’s, Crashed McQueen’s, etc. Interestingly enough, he just can’t really damage his Mater’s. They’re crash proof 😉
I still can’t believe Mattel never made Crashed FHH or a number of other ‘no-brainers’ like White Flag Dexter Hoover. Seriously, how can a company come out with a Final Lap collection, include a Checkered Flag Dexter, and completely ignore making Dexter with a FINAL LAP flag? Arrrrgh!
Once Cars 2 has made their run over the next couple of years, I would love to see them come back to Cars 1 and put out the cars that people have been waiting for. Let’s start with Tach-O-Mint, eh?
…AND, the Final Lap logo was Dexter Hoover WITH A WHITE FLAG!!!!! 🙁
john in mo. it’s seems your on top of most cars from cars 1. what do you suggest i do the collect each & every one exceptt hose with minor versions.
“Collect them all!”
It’s just so sad you had to make your own even though we were promised this one by Mattel. Oh Cars 1 releases we never got. Where are thou? Will we see you again or are we stuck with Cars 2 cars for now and forever? Please come back. We neeeeeeeeeeeeeed the Classic line. At least give us what we were promised and we will call it even.
I too may have take out some frustration toward Mattel and take a hammer to a car or two. Might have to beat an extra No Stall and Leakless together too. Another promised release we didn’t get.
Im 100% with you on that Jack. Lets get the Cars 1 line going again and
give us some of those Cars you made us believe were coming Mattel. How about continuing the Cars Toons series with Mater Private Eye and Moon
Mater maybe. Come on Mattel, get with it!
Thank you Jack for asking me to become a member. I had been following
Take5aDay for years and enjoyed all the Cars collecting information that
Met and others have provided and also enjoy reading all our members posts
and comments. This is my first post and hello everybody!
Hello Mark and welome!
I’m with you guys about this feeling too…c’mon Mattel!!
Hey Mark. I’m so happy you finally found your way here! It’s long overdue. This is where a great collector like you belongs.
Yes I would lI’ve to see more Toons releases also. I really like the Toons line. I prefer those to Cars 2 also. I am almost positive Met said the Toons were returning sometime down the line. Hopefully before Christmas. The Mater PI release would be awesome. We were promised more Toons also so we will see.
And Mattel please here us. Release the classic line and makes us old time collectors happy. These henchman and gadget cars aren’t going to keep us fulfilled.
Hello and welcome to posting!
Welcome to posting. And I do say go back to Cars 1, finish the mega, pit row, pit stop launchers (Price needs to go down alot), Final Lap, and RVs. Any more RVs coming?
Classic! Great work!
Holy shoot! Very well done, john. Speaking of toy story, it also reminds me of sid from TS1 (Except you were doing it for good, not evil.) And on that note, a little trivia that sid is the garbage man in TS3 (or seems to be since they wear the same shirt.)
Looks awesome… thanks for your efforts, John, and thanks for sharing.
Great job Dude!!! Now can u make about a thousand plus for all of us out there in NEED!!!???
Also wanted to take this opportunity to thank Born2Collect and his sons as well as Tizmanian for the great contest where we won the Kmart poster!!!
We can’t wait to hang it on our wall!!!
Merci Buckets!
I’d like to thank Born2Collect as well — I got the t-shirt and pencils from Met yesterday — they are awesome! Thanks guys!!
Why couldn’t you have done that to a lenty? I still need a fixed eye Fabulous Hudson Hornet!
Sorry, but I “customized” this for my kids about 4 years ago. We were recently going through their loose Cars and rediscovered this gem from our past. The “flat” front tire on the driver’s side was accidental, but I feel like a genius now for doing that. 🙂
I feel a lot better now, thanks! I am still waiting for my kids to start making customs like these.
Seriously, you like lenticulars? They suck. I hope when we do get this (If we ever do.) it isn’t lenticular. I also hope we see non lenticulars of all lenticular chase cars. They were a huge mistake, and we’d have lots more FL out if it wasn’t for them.
