Built To Cruise Episode #33 Cory Scott continues his story by telling us about his enormous Hot Wheels collections, numbering over 30,000 cars!
As a kid, Cory was always interested in Hot Wheels Diecast cars. When his little brother was old enough, Cory began buying Hot Wheels diecast cars for himself and his brother. Over the years, Cory's collection has grown into legendary status.
Cory has built Hot Wheels tribute trucks as part of his business, Kustom Werx Autobody. But his childhood passion has pushed him into building a complete Hot Wheels diecast room at his house. Cory's Hot Wheels collection is truly Texas-sized, and one can wander the room for hours without seeing every single Hot Wheels car there is to see. Is it the largest Hot Wheels collection in the world? It might not be, but it definitely fits Cory's Kustom Werx Hot Wheels life.

I can relate to this guy! I'm running out of room myself. The struggle is real. Unfortunately I don't have a wife who tells me no, she's equally addicted. So she's my enabler haha - but I wouldn't change it for anything. We love it!

Nothing infuriated me more than to walk into a department store and find the local loser trying to control the entire Hot Wheels section. Not letting anyone else including children into the display area until they personally searchd through every single car looking for their treasure hunts!!! There are some real bastards out there. I was always that guy picking up straightening and cleaning up a destroyed display for the sake of preserving any ounce of respectability the Hot Wheels collector scene could possibly retain.

I too have the sickness. I'm 57. Took great care of my red lines as a kid. Then Dove deep into aggressively collecting in '95 and just went berserk until I finally put the brakes on in 2005. I was carrying on like I was some kind of a drug dealer running store to store. Then sneaking all these great finds into the house only to store them into tubs because I have no room to display them. Then I switched over to focusing on The fine wines of Mattel called Red lines and vintage '60s Mattel Hot wheel memorabilia which is my passion today. I stopped aggressively collecting The annual Chase series cars because I got tired of the repaints. More and more repaints on the shelves year after year. Now my entire collection sits stored in stacks and stacks of tubs in my basement, awaiting a larger house so I might put them on display in my own room full of Hot Wheels!!!! At 57. It's so funny to hear my 86-year-old mother tell me. "Don't let anyone tell you to give up your Hot Wheels. Those great cars. Keep you young at heart!"

I have been collecting for the past year. It can get addicting. You spend time going from store to store and not finding much and when you hit a nice stocked store, you want to hoard everything to make up for the time you have been running around....lol My son got into them and it brought out the nostalgia for me and I went a little bonkers. I have found some nice treasure hunts and super treasure hunts. Plus, the cars that are real riders nowadays are made so much nicer than back then with so much detail. I also bought a whole bunch of wheelsets to customize the mainlines. All I need now is the time to customize them....lol.

I have multiple collections. I collect mainly vinyl records, that's my favorite collection. I have a Beatles things collection, guitar collection, Nintendo 64 game collection, airsoft/bb gun collection, model car collection, and many more. However, I moderate my stuff. I only get what I really want, and then leave just a little slack for something new just because. My record collection is my biggest so far and I'm eternally happy with it. Every record has been serving it's purpose for me, they never get old. But just now, my dad found my Hot Wheels box from when I was a kid, so I'm proud to say I have a Hot Wheels collection too! Not just Hot Wheels, small cars in general. I actually have always loved the flimsy metal ones, I don't know what their called, but they're made out of really thin bendable metal and cheap plastic and they're all made in china. Well, I love those the most for some reason lol, as a kid those where my fave

I have been collecting for 25 years and I say that I became an addict recently. Like in the past few weeks I sent oner $200 on cars from eBay alone. I would throw a $1 bid on cars and let it ride. Then it went to small lots of cars and I have a rule of no more than $1 a car including shipping in the total. Now I'm buying large lots of like 25 to 30 cars. It can be a downhill spiral if you truly get into it especially when you have access to eBay 24/7. It's great to see another person's collection. One day I would love to walk through somebody's collection to just see what I am missing when it comes to Hot Wheels.
