The Deora was part of the Original 16 in the 1968 Hot Wheels series. The car was based on the 1964 Dodge Deora, a real-life concept truck designed by Harry Bradley, (who, by 1968 was working as Hot Wheels' own designer) and built by Larry and Mike Alexander. In 2000, Nathan Proch deisgned a sequel to this casting, named the Deora II. It was loosely based on the original, but more streamlined and aerodynamic. One year later, in 2003, a full-size working version of the Deora II was built, bringing the legend of the Deora full-circle.
