How to Make a Hot Wheels Car with Cardboard

CluingWear·7 months ago

So, you wanna craft a Hot Wheels car out of cardboard? First, get your hands on some stiff cardboard, a template of a car (you can draw one or print it out), scissors, glue, and paint if you wanna jazz it up. Trace the template onto the cardboard, carefully cut it out, fold it up into a car shape, and glue the edges to keep it together. Don't forget to make wheels – you can use more cardboard or snag something round and small like bottle caps. Paint it to look like a flame-throwing Hot Wheels car, and boom, you're done!

Honestly, I tried making one of these with my nephew. Our first attempt looked more like a wonky bus than a sleek Hot Wheels car, but with some practice (and less wonky cutting), we got something that kinda zoomed across the table like a real Hot Wheels. Key tip: make sure the wheels are straight, or your car will veer off faster than a real Hot Wheels on a loop track!
