The story behind the '52 CHEVY
The '52 Chevy stands out as a highly desirable Super Treasure Hunt from the 2018 Mainline releases. Part of the HW Metro series, this vintage pickup truck captures classic American style with modern Hot Wheels flair. Designed by Larry Wood and assigned SKU FKB42, it appeals to those who chase rare finds. This model is extremely hard to spot on store shelves because Super Treasure Hunts are produced in very limited quantities compared to regular cars. Collectors love the flashy pink finish that catches the light, along with crisp white pinstriping details across the cab and bed. Finding one still sealed feels like winning a small prize since these special editions disappear fast during seasonal drops.
