Notes

Introduced in 1969, Ira's concept car was a Original Hot Wheel. It was designed from the ground up in house at Mattel. The Twin Mill has become one of the most recognizable and popular Hot Wheels casting for generations, enough that a full-size replica of the car was created and displayed at autoshows.

Early versions saw what is called "Cut Fenders". These adhere to the drawings Ira made. This is proclaimed to be a prototype. Many different colors do exist, Antifreeze, Orange, Red, Apple Green, Creamy Pink.

This casting was made in the USA only.

It has led to three other follow-up castings, the Twin Mill II (1993) and Twin Mill III, as well as a Toon Car Casting.

It is playable in Hot Wheels: Turbo Racing and Hot Wheels Stunt Track Driver. the Twin Mill is also seen briefly as a cameo in Hot Wheels Stunt Track Driver 2: GET'N DIRTY. It is about to be playable again in the Forza Horizon 3 along with the Bone Shaker, Rip Rod and the 2005 Ford Mustang in the brand new Hot Wheels expansion pack.
