It is amazing... but they are worth so much because we blew them up with firecrackers and bottle rockets...

We used to knock the rear windows out of them and then jam a bottle rocket in the back set them on the orange track with a jump to try to make them go really far like Burt Reynolds in Hooper... HOT WHEELS

Swinging over to collecting these would sure solve the garage problems! .

Seriously, that's serious dough! .
I never had that 'Ivo' Gremlin myself but sure had my fun on Christmas mornings and know my old box of 'em is here somewhere too? .
The original Sizzlers Mach was the only Mustang I've ever owned and I know it's here in the box...anyone still have a Juice Machine? .

I know this is off topic but I thought I would share the Bottle Rocket and Drunken Neighbor story.
A friend of mine went down to his shore house for a holiday weekend and his next door neighbor decided
to have a party and fireworks display. A bottle rocket went astray and went through my friends window
and according to witnesses proceeded to bounce around the room and set the house on fire. They arrived
home to find their home burnt to the ground.

guys redline hotwheels are my thing.visit redlinesonline.com for the whole deal about them.this auction is people from our site redlines online bidding way high cause the seller is a scam artist that has ripped many off for thousands/alfred scott is his scammer name
redlines are valuable though commenly changing hands from 20 bucks to 20k/a few have reached almost 70k/prototypes

i have spent more money on hotwheels than my vipers/

n/j if that open fire is truely purple and not magenta than you have a 2 to 5 k car depending on condition.id love to see pics of your childhood collection.it would be like a barn find/you would be very surprised at what your cars are worth/id love a shot at buying them if they became available or im available if you just want help doing it yourself/please check out redlinesonline.com

Guys!

Something is amiss here with this auction. The price is
now up to: US $345,678.90

Is this a joke?
