Hot Wheels “Twinmill” 1969

 

 twinmill

　

Some say that the Twinmill Number 6258 was the first concept car produced. This twin-engine car was designed by Ira Gilford.  His design had two engines  -”chrome plastic”, metal chassis, clear plastic windows and rsw tires.

This production was only manufactured in the United States and came in 16 different colors.  Because they were very so many different color variations of the Twinmill, the value varies greatly.  If you are looking for a value, you will most likely have to get a value out of a good Hot Wheel price guide -Tomart’s Price Guide to Hot Wheels: Volume 1: 1968 – 1996

HOT WHEELS – MORE VINTAGE RED LINES

4hotwheelsp

These are 4 of my favorite red line Hot Wheels that came out during the period of 1968-1969.  

The 3 from 1968 are the Custom Mustang, Silhouette and Python.   Hot Wheels are my favorite of all the diecast cars and I’m always on the hunt.

Even though they were designed originally for play-racing, they have turned out to be a favorite collectible for boys of any age.  And, I’m still hunting for that Volkswagon Beach Bomb – surf boards out the rear window.  Anyone with one of those is lucky in deed!!
