I'm fickle. for the right trade any of them except the Omega. the seamaster I bought at the PX on Lackland AFB. Made it through 6 years of pararescue. I had it fully restored last year. It looks like brand new.

CJ, I have a ton of old hot wheels and they all have the red stripe on the wheels...also have the power house that tied into the track to shoot out the cars...all in great condition and my son is just starting to play with them..I would say that they are from the late 60's early 70's???????

The old redlines (red wall wheels) are worth anywhere from 25 to 100 dollars in good condition !!!!!! I would buy him some new ones for a dollar and let him play with them ..... Any car that is the musle car type are worth more ... such as the nitty gritty kitty , the boss hoss and the heavy chevy ... all worth about a hundred each in good condition .... an olds 442 is worth 200 or more !!!!

You have some keepers! I myself have about a dozen or two. I also collect the hess trucks. Have them all with all papers and boxes except for three- The very first 1964, the 1966 boat, and the special edition of the 1969. There all, including the howheels in cases I made in my office hanging on the wall, Dust free of course.
