Model Car Hall of Fame
Honor
Formed in 2008 and inducting members since 2009 the Hall of Fame is honoring designers, historians, entrepreneurs, collectors and automotive legends. Inductees into the Model Car Hall of Fame include NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt, comedian and noted car collector Jay Leno, and the late Paul Walker of Fast and Furious fame.
A number of designers, collectors, and entrepreneurs have also been inducted for their contribution to the diecast and/or automotive community, like Tom Lowe who revived Johnny Lightning in 2005 after it shuttered over three decades ago. Car customizers and TV personalities Chip Foose, of the TV show Overhaulin' on Velocity, and Richard Rawlings of Discovery Channel's Fast N' Loud, were also inducted for their customization and increasing visibility of the automotive industry through their work on TV.

<p>The Dairy Delivery, designed by <a href="/marketplaces/hobbydb/subjects/phil-riehlman-designer" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-original-url="https://www.hobbydb.com/marketplaces/hobbydb/subjects/phil-riehlman-designer">Phil Riehlman</a>, debuted in the 1998 First Editions series. It is loosely based on the <a href="/marketplaces/hobbydb/subjects/divco-brand" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-original-url="https://www.hobbydb.com/marketplaces/hobbydb/subjects/divco-brand">Divco</a> Dairy Truck which was produced from 1926 to 1986. In 2008 the Dairy Delivery was voted as number 22 of the Top 40 Hot Wheels of all time. This casting is very popular with customizers due to the large surface areas to apply their graphics/designs and with racers as it is heavy.</p>
<p>The Dairy Delivery was also the base for four other castings:</p>
