Description
The Mazda Autozam casting is based on one of the most unusual winners in Hot Wheels history, “Texas Toot”, a one-of-a-kind monster truck built by Craig Meaux of Texas. It started life as a 1992 Autozam Scrum, a tiny Japanese cab-over kei truck sold by Mazda under its Autozam brand and powered by a 660 cc three cylinder engine. Meaux spent about two years rebuilding it from the ground up into a mud bogging monster truck with a massive Chevy 454 cubic inch V8, giant tires and even train horns.
The result was crowned the global winner of the 2022 Hot Wheels Legends Tour, the first truck ever to take the title. Hot Wheels designers said that turning a Japanese mini truck into a monster truck was hard to beat, and the winning build was reimagined as a 1:64 die-cast in 2024 by Meaux and Hot Wheels designer Manson Cheung, who said it was a very difficult casting to design.
This release is part of the HW Dream Garage series, numbered 1 of 5, and is finished in a bold Red paint with white diagonal stripes and a white and blue star graphic. It captures the tall, oversized stance of this kei truck turned monster at 1:64 scale, a fun and very different addition to any Hot Wheels collection.
