I've had this on the bench for awhile, deciding if I should restore or customize it.










1973 Rocket Bye-Baby Ready for restoration, looking to trade for quantity of
the Hot Wheel '70 Mustang Mach 1 casting for customs I'm doing. I am only
looking for the follow:
1998 First Edition #670
2006 #125
2003 #193
Classic Series
2001 #112
2002#179
2000 Mystery Car
Also, any with Rubber Tires such as Limited Editions, Garage, Holiday, Editor's Choice, etc.
Here is how it looked, pretty much a mess...

And how it looks now, all the parts are very nice and I think it has a sweet patina to it...

Front

Right Side

Left Side

Back

Here you can see the original rivets, before cracking it open...

The rivets where drilled out very carefully as you can see, I generally drill, tap and use a button head
screw for reassembly, but you will receive it like you see in the picture, so you can decide on how
you want to reassemble i.e. RLOL rivets, epoxy, or button heads or ?

The redline wheels and axels are the originals, and looked very good so I did not replace them.

This is how it looks and how you will receive it...
