Aside from the Ford Mustang/GT, Harley Davidson, HotWheels, and Jaguar Strats what other Car or motorcycle themed Strats are there?
I have seen alot out of the Custom shop already, any not so common editions you know of?
I have pics of a few here.

I collect Hotwheels too...I would love to get my hands on one of these!!

Ceri sent me the link to this beauty, The Jaguar Strat.

Dunno, but I love those chrome knurled knobs on the Harley Strat. Seen shiny metal Strat knobs before, but not as nice as those ones. I wonder where to get some?

I'm looking for 'em too.
They match the chrome covers they put on the bikes.
I mean exactly, they are called tophat covers. Very cool.

Come to think of it, the Strat knobs I've seen are chrome-coated plastic - and they look like it.

The knurled ones in that pic are obviously real and look really tasty. Man, there'd be a lot of people like to have some of those if we could find out where they come from. Anyone know?

But how are they made? I never did engineering or metalwork. Would a piece like that be cast or is that knurling cut into it somehow? I guess we're not going to be running those up at home...

Be nice to see them available from online sellers, alongside the various versions of Tele knobs...
