Pontiac Funny Car - Hotwheels

This is among one of the Hot Wheels cars that I loved most in my car collection. It is a Pontiac Funny Car from 100% Hot Wheels produced in 2002. According to its size, it is longer than any regular diecast produced by Hot Wheels. Blue and white paint job and the "Hot Wheels" as the tempo and not forgetting the "Moon Eyes" logo in front of the car, making this car very attractive.

The first funny cars were built in the mid-'60s and so-called because the rear wheels had been moved forward on the chassis to improve weight transfer under acceleration, increasing traction on the rear tires, which were Oversized compared to stock. Looking at the cars, they did not quite look stock, hence the name "funny."
