Hotwheels: Custom 69 Chevy

My Custom 69 Chevy collection...
'02 HW 1st ed. Custom 69 Chevy. This is were it all started.
2nd version and was released for HW segment series (Radical Wrestlers) for '03.  Same casting were used as a freebie for  Hotwheels Truckin' Book.
same year, another version made for HW mainline cars.
same year again, 4th version were released but this time it is for Nascar Recreational series for Terry Labonte. One of my favorite version.
'04, 5th version was released. Another HW special (Haul n Asphalt) similar to Nascar Recreational series only with rubber tires.   Got this from Canada thru Ebay and took almost 6mos before it arrived here at the postal office.
'04 same year, 6th version made. This came from a 5-pack gift set (Truckus 500).   2-3 years after, same casting were used except for the wheel which is a 5 spokes variant; and it's not just from a 5-pack but from a PLAYSET. 
'05, a year after. another 5pack (Heat Fleet) were released carrying this one - 7th version.
'06, 8th version of Custom 69 Chevy from HW Redline Segment series.
same series but a kmart exclusive... the 9th version.
same year again, 10th version was made. This time it is for a playset (Super 6-in-1) that comes with 10 exclusive cars including this one and the Yellow Morris Mini with tiger tampo.
'07, HW finally decided to release their 11th version of Custom 69 Chevy under Treasure Hunt series. This was also the 1st time HW introduced two versions for their Treasure Hunt line, as regular HW car (TH) and with rubber tires ($TH)
Heres the $TH version of Custom 69 Chevy. This is also the last item that I've bought to complete my line-up.
moving-on... heres the 13th version and it came from a playset (WWE Playset).  So far, this is the 2nd HTF version of all Custom 69 Chevy that were released.  Lucky enough to find one.
same year again, 14th version was released under HW RLC Selection. Cool!

'08 HW Hot Trucks segment series, 15th version of Custom 69 Chevy.  I really like the shade of blue/violet + flames tampo they used here.
'09, new 5 pack from HW (Hot Rods) were released with this one in the line-up. 
'10, from HW Slick Rides, new line that HW introduced in the market.

18th version from '11 HW Garage series.


Both from '12 HW City Works Segment series. The blue one is a Walmart Exclusive


the last two versions of my Custom 69 Chevy from '13 HW Showroom segment series.  There are three (3) for this series, the last one which I don't have yet is a ZAMAC version of these two.
and finally, my own version of this casting.  This was my entry for a Custom Car Competition with a theme: Bare Metal. This is also my first custom made diecast. I have several extras of this casting for future projects. haha

So there, I hope you guys like it. Thank you very much for looking!
