You can find several on eBay:

Search for "HOT WHEELS, XLR" and you'll find them from $19.00 to $49.00.

Good luck,

I have a really nice one, mounted on a base with opening doors & hood. Made by Mattel. Top is down, doesn't go up.

Wife, Maryann ordered it from the XLR Boutique.

The ad shows a 1:43 scale model selling for $35.89, the Boutique's model, when in stock, is 1:18 at $62.95, it's your choice.

Well it's now time to finish packing and see if the luggage fits with my new Dunlap just in case. Running that far without run flats could be a lay over putting me behind, so at least I have a tire to mount when AAA gets there. shave & shower time and dinner with Jay tonight.
She didn't want to let me use my laptop I gave to her for 10 days. I told her to use my desktop when she comes over to feed Mocha.
BTW.......Mocha found a small hole where my zipper wasn't closed on my luggage and I found her sleeping in there. Guess she knows somethings up, as usual.

BTW........I have walkie talkies and I'll give you one at breakfast so we don't have to keep calling on the cell, plus it's faster.
11 1/2 hours to leaving, see you at Pat's Kitchen around 7 am.
Keep the bears out of your brithches and wheels between the ditches, good buddy.

HI Jim,
you know I not have any problems to go on vacation after about Aug. 10th, so last week of July is a little too soon for me.
If RIII would have been in August I wouldn`t have had any problems to come but you know this from RII.

I`m sure Bob is coming to LV while my wife and me is over there and he try to get a "small western XLR RIII" for Vegas together. Isn`t that great!!!!

I know and Jean are on your way to BG and as far as I`ve heard from Mea Bob is already on the road too.

Lots of fun and:party for this big R III

Hans
