What is a hot wheel redline ? and how to know you have the real deal 

I feel honored to have been part of the 1960s hot wheels area I remember getting thees things for Christmas and all throughout my childhood life and I am still playing with them at age 61

Best is increasing your knowledge of Redlines through books,videos,and TRUSTED people... So many scammers out there. Can’t go by dates on base for real year made,cause many cars use the same mold years later... Best way to know a Redline is looking at near mint original cars, focusing on the paint. Spectraflame paint looks like a mirror finish,and is unforgettable. And if the wheels have a hole in the center, or you can see the axle in the center, it’s NOT a redline... Knowledge and Information IS POWER...especially in your wallet..!!!

Thanks Kurbz great info for a newbie collector like myself.

Thanks for the tutorial, much appreciated. 👍👍👍

I know the Ford J-Car had an enamel white version in 1968 (partially because I have a few of them, it's one of the most common original RLs that I've found at thrift stores), I'm not sure if there were any other enamel exceptions that year off the top of my head. Mongoose and Snake were also enamel in 1970 but they still had stickers except for the headlights which were tampos.

My first hot wheel was 1968 an white ford gt40 with red liners.

The Hong Kong beatnik bandit came with a steering wheel....since 68😉

A Hot Wheels Redline is most of the HW cars I used to have back in the 70s! What a nidiot! I had Matchbox, Corgi, Dinky Spot-On, then I got interested in going to the pub and don't know where they all went. Doh! 🤦😅

The beatnik bandit did not have cap wheels, the wheels are removable, cap wheels came in 69, and only the cap could come off
