Don "The Snake" Prudhomme's 1971 Hot Wheels Cuda Funny Car Don Prudhomme's "Hot Wheels" funny cars were arguably his most well known race cars. Tom McEwen knew someone at Mattel Toys in the R&D department. The Tom and Don had an idea for a sponsorship tied to Mattel's Hot Wheels toys. A deal was struck, and the rest is drag racing history. McEwen and Prudhomme played their Snake and Mongoose nicknames off of each other and did radio spots before match races to stoke the fans for Wednesday or Saturday night racing. It worked for years. This 11" x 17" full-color art print is made on white card stock and shrink wrapped on cardboard. Signed and numbered by the artist in a series of 500.
