Mutt Mobile

==Description==
The Mutt Mobile is a hot-rodded dog truck, designed by Larry Wood, which debuted in the 1971 Hot Wheels range of vehicles. It features an exposed motor and exhaust pipes, control stick steering, and a rear compartment to transport dogs in. The rear compartment has a opening door which reveals two white dogs.  
The 1971 version came was manufactured in Hong Kong and came painted in various Spectraflame colors, of which Aqua is the most common and Rose is the hardest to find. It was packaged with a plastic 'Collector's Button'. The rear compartment and interior are loosely fit and are suseptible to falling out, thankfully it can be replaced with parts from the 1994 retooled version which are more readily available and far less valuable.
The Mutt Mobile was re-released in 1973 under a new name, Odd Job. The Odd Job could only be found in enamel and fluorescent colors. They came with the newer style 'Hole-Through' wheels, but some could be found with the older style 'Capped' wheels on the rear. The dogs were removed from the rear and 'Mutt Mobile' was also removed from the side of the rear canopy. 
The Odd Job was also manufactured in Mexico by CIPSA, these versions are very hard to find and are often in poor condition (more information below).
The Odd Job is a re-released version of the Mutt Mobile, a hot-rodded dog truck released in 1971 and designed by Larry Wood. It features an exposed motor and exhaust pipes, control stick steering, and a rear compartment to transport dogs in. The rear compartment has a opening door which reveals two white dogs.
It was produced in the 1973 Lineup of cars and could only be found in enamel or flourescent paint. It was produced with the new-style 'Hole-Through' Redline wheels on the front and either the older style 'Capped' Redline wheels or  'Hole-Through' Redine wheels on the rear. The canopy differs from the previous release as it is now blank on the sides. The canopy and interior are loosely fit and are susceptible to falling out. 
The Odd Job was also manufactured in Mexico by CIPSA. These versions are extremely rare and are often found in poor condition.
In 1994, the Mutt Mobile was retooled for the 1994 Vintage Series II after a 31 year absence.
