I'm so glad they completed the whole set of cars. Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera would be proud.

Are u kidding me!!!  I watched every episode of this show when i was a kid, some of them multiple times. I've even watched a few on YT since I got a computer about 2 years ago. To the people that built those cars, Well Done, indeed. Cheers!!

@clintonearlwalker

Yup someone actually built the cars. They are in full working in order, eg engines etc.

Oleased you loved them

[clintonearlwalker]

@F1KillerQueen Yeah, that was great!! Is this festival in England or do you know?

[F1KillerQueen]

@clintonearlwalker

Yup, It is at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, near Chichester, England. About three miles from where I live......

@F1KillerQueen I watched "The Wacky Racers" all the time when I was a kid in the late 1960's in the US, I had no idea it was even on TV in other countries, pretty damn amazing, especially that people made this effort so many years after the cartoon ended. Dick Dastardly would always crash right before the finish line and all the other cars would pass him right at the end :)

No 1 is the cavemen slide brothers, no 2 is the creepy coupe, no 3 is the converter car driven by professor pat pendington, no 4 is the red max, no 5 is the lovely penelope pitstop, no 6 is the army surplus special, no 7 is the ant hill mob, no 8 is the arkansas chuggabug, no 9 is peter perfect and no 10 is the buzzwagon driven by rufus ruffcut. Of course the final car is the 00 driven by dick dastardly and his sidekick muttley. Loved the show. Its on GO Channel in australia.
