Found a Mustang in my Mustang

This dropped out of my heater box! It is supposed to be a pretty rare redline hotwheels model called a Boss Hoss in an even rarer color of Chrome. Too bad it is in such rough shape. Still cool though!

They were made in 1970, so there is no telling how long it's been in there.

Hey...do a frame off resto on it! :p

Cool find for sure!

Now this is my kinda topic! My two favorite things, mustangs and (old) Hotwheels. Your right, that is a chrome Boss Hoss Club Car. In mint condition, probably worth $150+. In that condition.... :(

But it is a cool conversation piece. You should put it back where you found it!

Believe it or not, there are a few of those late 60's redline mustangs that would rival the cost of some full size mustangs!

Very cool. I had one back in the '70's. Who would have thought HotWheels would have gotten so valuable. As we turned into teens, we blew them up with firecrackers and smashed them. I wish I had that old collection that me and my brothers used to have ... they'd be worth a fortune today.

Very neat find. Only thing I ever found was a bag of pot in the heater box of the '65 we built for my son. *LOL*

I actually have that exact Hotwheel somewhere. I have a whole box of the old redline series. Unfortunately when I had them I was 7 and they were just toys so they will be in less then stellar condition when I actually happen across them someday.
