Here's a Red '65

Here's a tu-tone green/white '65 like the one I've got.

I wish they'd make those Sun Star ones with '66 grilles, the Wix trucks are the only ones I've seen with '66 grilles.

That must be from the Kmart truck mold. I bought several of these hoping because the were so limited that they might be worth something someday. Each Kmart store only got 1 case of toys and it was supposed to be the first in a series of collectibles. Then Kmart got into financial trouble and they didn't bring out #2.

Well, the Wix set with the Boss 302 I've noticed on eGouge in the $85 range, so they're sorta going up in value.

I'm bidding on the Wix truck in the link above...I'm just too cheap to spring for the truck & 'Stang set.

Here's the extent of my mini Slick collection so far.
