HOT WHEELS - THUNDER ROLLER 1983




The racing truck was powerful sounding Thunder Roller. This was a cabover (forward control) truck with an aerodyne cab and large sleeper compartment. Although not named as such, it was pretty obviously a Kenworth. It was painted yellow with an eagle and ribbon motif on the sides. Thunder Roller disappeared for several years, until it was revived in 1996 in an attractive metallic red colour scheme. --Diecast Collector  Shop here
