First time I have ever seen anyone do something like this in HO. Hope you will do more. There is a cr*pload of Rat Fink stuff on the net. Found these on eBay with little problem. They are 1 : 64, HO is 1 : 87, but the Ed Roth figures were always oversize, so they might work.

Actually, slot car HO is 1:64 which might be why the figures are.

Remember the Odd Rod cards that depicted muscle cars with huge engines and monsters driving them , I decided to make one that was one of my favorite cards from the set. Here is my creation of that car.
