    Hollywood Hot Wheels: Round 38

    WELCOME TO:

    HOLLYWOOD HOT WHEELS: ROUND 38


    A pre-Xmas look at the industries most recognisable vehicles covering all manners of iconic designs from film, tv and gaming, their history and what you think of them.

    Each round will see three vehicles lined up for the showcase. Unlike the voting conducted in the other threads, here things are more cutthroat.

    You each can only vote for a single design in each round, casting the other two to the scrapheap of Hollywood history.
    Make your choice then tell us why you like or don't like each vehicle and why you voted for the one you did.

    VEHICLE 112 - 1966 Plymouth Barracuda

    ​

    Fireball 500's lead car is the same named cross country racer used to run moonshine during the era of copycat films that Smokey trailblazed. A custom build, it's unknown where the car currently is.

    Great Balls of Fireball?

    VEHICLE 113 - Thunderbird 2

    ​

    The second in the Tracey family line of vessels, Thunderbird 2 is a heavy duty transporter moving emergency equipment and Thunderbird 4 to the hot spots they are needed in. Due to its passive use it features heavily throughout the show and is one of its most recognisable vehicles.

    2 Thunder 2 Bird?




    ​VEHICLE 114 - Oldsmobile

    ​

    The Oldmobile was the car used in the original Evil Dead due to being Sam Raimi's own car and so no cost required for filming. As such it was reused across the entire franchise and has become an easter egg within his films of sorts making some sort of appearance in nearly all of his productions such as being Uncle Ben's car in the Spider-Man movies. It still remains in Raimi's hands today.

    Taking the Win for the Old Guard?

    Close one this time. Almost went for the Oldsmobile due to pure fun of hunting for it in various productions. However, Thunderbird 2 is cool. Plus I owned a strangely coloured metallic blue version as a kid.
