Splittin' Image

Description

Splittin' Image was a car from the 1969 Hot Wheels line-up. The car has two separate cockpits. It has a large engine with two exhaust pipes running down the length of the car. These exhaust pipes run between the two cockpits. On the 1969 version of the car, there were aerodynamic ridges on the cockpit windsheilds. The later Shell Promo release of this car did not have these nubs on the windshields. This casting was issued in the USA only.
