Casting Details

Type:Highlighted Casting
The Ice T is a classic casting from the early Redline era, debuting in 1973 during a time when Hot Wheels was transitioning away from Spectraflame and into enamel paint. It has that sleek, low-profile sports car look with a long hood and fastback-style rear that really captures the design trends of the early ’70s. One interesting detail about the Ice T is its detailed engine and removable roof feature, giving it that extra bit of character kids loved back in the day. It was produced in several enamel colors and came with the thinner “through-hole” style wheels introduced around that time, marking a shift in Hot Wheels production design. Always fun to appreciate these early ’70s castings and the subtle changes that make each year unique.

About This Casting

This 1973- Ice T represents a standout piece from the Redline era of Hot Wheels collecting. Each casting from this period showcases the legendary Spectraflame paint and red-line tires that defined the golden age of Hot Wheels.

Hot Wheels Redlines from the late 1960s and early 1970s are prized for their innovative designs, vibrant colors, and exceptional craftsmanship. The attention to detail in these miniature replicas captured the imagination of collectors then and now.

Why This Casting Stands Out

What makes this casting special is its place in Hot Wheels history. The unique design features, original Spectraflame finish, and red-line wheels represent the pinnacle of 1960s-70s die-cast manufacturing. These details make it highly sought after by collectors.

Whether you have a single vintage Hot Wheels car or an entire collection, each piece carries value and history. Redline Hot Wheels in good condition can be worth significantly more than you might expect.
