Size comparison with a trio of Hot Wheels. To be more specific, the HW ‘80 Dodge Macho Power Wagon, the HW ‘64 Lincoln Contiental, and the HW Aston Martin DB5. The Aston is smaller, but it’s not too bad, as these were/are big cars if I recall. The Lincoln is almost the exact same size, and the Dodge truck still looks proper next to it.
