This was a great interview. I'm 63 and can still remember my first Hot Wheels car, the Custom 67 Camaro in blue. We would trade them, give them as gifts for Christmas in school. I love listening to these stories. And to see the people who were such a large part of my childhood. Favorite casting? The 3 Window '34.
Yes! The '67 Camaro was my first Hot Wheel! He was great to talk to, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
What a great interview. As big as the market is now and the desire of collectors, someone really needs to put together a Larry Wood art book.
Got to be one of the greatest interviews of all time
