That looks like a serious kickstart!  :o Now hit the gas and tighten some screws!

Step 1) Disassembly,
Step 2) Metal Bodies overnight in paint remover, will clean later today.
.
Step 3) Smash a few.
Step 4) Assemble; Will follow "Rule of Cool" not wysiwyg.
Step 5) Prime and Paint.

Stripped the Rest; will still use a little steel wool to polish (I prefer a Brillo Pad, as the soap helps clean) GT40 is the back is from a car bitz build at a Con, hate to strip and ruin it.

Assembly Step;
Armoring all over obscures shapes and style of the vehicle, but I will armor a few still.

Thanks, actually quite fun assembling them.
I could have bought some with engines sticking out of the hoods, rather than adding engines, lol... but went on the cheap with a box set of some futuristic looking vehicles and a Maitso box set of cheap basic vehicles, the better quality Hotwheel Matchbox I had laying around from gifts.
.
Note for Modelers; the Hotwheels and Matchbox seem to all have an Interior, the less expensive Maitso, etc. seem to not. Only important if that matters.
