This one is a Muscle Machines, pretty nice casting too. It's more accurate than the HW's casting shown above.
It even made it into this months issue of Model Cars Magazine, the contest issue... - Mark
I've been doing some hot wheels collecting for awhile, then had to get rid of a lot, and now I have started customizing them. I wish Mattel would go back to the 2000-2002 style line instead of the cartoonish stuff. I still go to my Wal-Mart though and browse through all of them.

Mark, you said it was a Muscle Machines? Wow, that really shocked me. I have not seen the Muscle Machines 37 Chevy, I have only seen the Hot Wheels version. The MM and the HW versions look extremely similar minus a few details. Do the makers of MM share designs with Mattel?
