Ever since its inception, Hot Wheels Redline Cars have been
on the list of favorites of people of all ages and gender.
Collecting the old version of these cars has become the
hobby of many peoples. The craze for these cars has gone to the next level and
collectors are ready to pay any amount to make these cars a part of their
collection.
The cars manufactured between the years 1960 to 1977 are
considered very collectible by toy experts worldwide. The car manufactured
in this range is grouped into the category of rare redline hot wheels not
only because they are old, but they have a history associated with them.
Out of the various reasons, some prime ones include
copyright issues, a fewer number of a particular car manufactured, etc.
In this article, I am going to list down the top 3 rarest
and the most desirable Hot
Wheels Redline cars that toy experts have a unanimous opinion for.
It is worth mentioning here that many toy experts have different opinions about the most desirable and the rarest ones. I gave
mentioned the names based on the opinion of the majority.
1. Pink Rear-Loading Beach Bomb
Leading the chart and the one that most of the experts have
a unanimous opinion on is the Pink rear-loading Beach Bomb.
This prototype was in the possession of a Mattel employee
and no general public is known to own this car. It is considered unique as its
surfboards load through the rear window, unlike others.
This Beach Bomb design was changed as it proved to be too
narrow and top-heavy. A different version of this car was created that featured
side-mounted surfboards. A full-length plastic sunroof for a lower center of
gravity was also included in this model.
As of today, only two Pink versions are known to exist,
which clearly explains why it is on the top of the chart.
2. Over Chrome Camaro
This prototype was never meant for mass production. This car
was made for advertisement only. Only a limited number of pieces of these were
created. The antifreeze-over-chrome-finish Camaro is the color of this rare
piece. As per toy experts, only 20 models of these cars are in existence to
date. This car is famous for one more reason. The way of manufacturing
resembles Christian ornaments and is hence famous.
3. Over Chrome Mustang
This model was also meant for advertisement purposes only
and was never put for mass production.
Till today, it is a mystery how this model managed to slip
out of the hands of Mattel employees.
As per toy experts’ vintage
hot wheels value of this car is in the range of $40000.
As mentioned earlier that there can be a difference in opinion
of toy experts as to which hot wheels redline cars one of these should be
considered the rarest and the most desirable.
However, most of the experts agreed with these three
prototypes. If your forefathers have left this for you then you have a jackpot
in disguise with you. You can’t imagine the value these cars can add to your
bank account.
