2nd Annual National Redline Challange Hot Wheels Redline 1971 Seasider Restoration

It is time again to celebrate National Redline Challenge and this year it is hosted by the Three Blind Mice and the Four Horsemen. For my submission I have restored my 1971 Hot Wheels Redline Seaside. I purchased this casting in 1971 when I was about thirteen and it has been well loved and played with by me, my kids and my grandkids so I though it deserved a full restoration. Check it out and enjoy!
