Anybody else buying up the HotWheels Blazers off Ebay?

I just scored my 2nd one for under 10 bucks shipped. This is a stock colored ochre/white 2wd, the 1st one I got a while back is a maroon 2wd one. I've been practicing on more generic HotWheels on how to drill out the rivets, take them all apart, and repaint to match a full size car, then reinstall everything.

No pics yet, but my first success was an old school BMW 2002 tii that was green with racing decals/numbers and white interior. It now matches my buddy's satin gunmetal/black interior car.

So which Blazer do I take apart and sand down? Going to be fun trying to convert the grill to a GMC. Hopefully I can find a 4X4 Hot Wheels with a similar wheelbase so when it goes back together it looks like my truck.

Thanks to whoever that guy was that made the scale crawler 69 Blazer...thats been my inspiration.
