Cj-8 Hot Wheels and Matchbox

I thought I had a bunch. Now I realize that my collection is sorely lacking…
 
One of the guys at work gave me one still in the plastic from his collection of classic cars. I didn't realize it is so hard to find. It sits where I can see it everyday next to a picture of my old Malamute who passed many years ago.
 
Odd, I only have those wheels on mine... now I gotta find the reverse... thanks a lot!!! LOL.

Ah, the basic wheel variant. Should not be hard to find, they are on flea bay all the time.

Now I’m mad. I didn’t know they made two versions of the wheels. Off I go to find the one I’m missing. I blame YOU ag4ever
Some of the newer releases have 2 versions with different wheels, too.
 
That is not a terrible price for the rarity of the white rim version.
 
I wish Greenlight would make Scramblers. I’ve been grabbing a few of their 1/64 Jeepster models- the detail is amazing.
 
I have that one. And a few others…I’ll shoot a pic once I get back from vacation.
 
Turns out I do not have a silver with white wheels CJ-8
Based on Ebay, it is indeed a rare one.
Another VHTF 'old' one is a brown with white wheels CJ-7.
