Not sure if this is straying to far from your OP question but,,,(Hot WHeels Cool)

Buy here is my Original Hot Wheels Trash Can I got as a Kid, It has had a Tough Life with Dents, and Paint splatter from Decades of Model Railroading and Model Airplane and Cars- Funny still has the department store label $1.34 or so, Still works fine. Dig the 80's: Garage Shag-Carpet also, Makes it hard to roll the creeper but soft on the back Ha

Sometimes you gotta make your own combo, I worked at a Display shop that did the Auto Shows so we had all kinds of perks, I took apart a hot wheels that had a black interior, took the interior and my Qt can of PPG GM #62 dark camel tan and had it sprayed. Lol

True Words!,
So Order a Car (Model) 1:87, 1:64, 1:24, 1:25 etc in the closest configuration you can from existing stock. Disassemble and Paint Decal as needed. Not to over the top but just get it close.

Here is a White 68Z I disassembled, Painted the interior and added a textured V top to match my 1:1 car in the garage. I just did not want to put the effort into a Flat Hood, I need to source a similar model harvest a Flat hood and paint it.
