Along with some old G.I. Joe stuff and some hot wheels redlines. It was a pretty good day today. The metal detectors new in the box it is in Xterra 305? For $20. I'll probably put that on the classifieds here.

A bag with about 25 hot wheels cars and at least two thirds of them are red lines.

The G.I. Joe stuff is from the 1970s one is a Seawolf in the original box. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1444491970.103892.webp

Great scores! I had the impression that you bought your first metal detector for you to use! :-) Congratulations.

If I could find the time I probably would. Just my kids are so little and so needy the only time I get to spend sto myself is yard sailing anymore. So I guess I need to find somebody else to enjoy it
 

Great finds Beach. Things have been slow for me on this side of the state. Nothing exciting or even worth posting about.
 

Great stuff. That is the kind of things I look for.
 

Got any pics of the redlines? I use to find them fairly often, now it is few and far between

I'm going to go through the rest now. but they're all dated 1960s and earlier. Not redline though.
 

What kind of trucks are these all they have on the bottom is a number 2?

Although I may have just figured it out but Tootsie Toy? ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1444534315.302673.webp
 

I believe those are Mini Marx trucks. Great find on the redlines.
 

Does anyone know if this one is supposed to have the Firestone sticker on it or if it is that something you could've bought the red car and added the stickers to it? It's pretty nice except for it's missing a sticker on the other side. I'm just going to auction it but just curious if anybody knows anything about it?

Awesome scores BK! All I can say is "Cha-ching" as you will make a lot of money off all those pieces you purchased.

That looks like the 1973 Mongoose but the stickers are all wrong, added probably by a kid. It has the same body casting as the Snake and the Top Eliminator. The On Line Redline Guide

Good call on the mongoose! The site is helpful too! Looks like no stickers are better the wrong stickers. I will take them off
 

Good finds. I did try to PM you on the xterra. I would like to possibly make a deal.
