Help with hot wheels

[Ninjafossils]

Found this little guy in a school field. My first car! Now it's a little crushed but I can make out from the lettering on the bottom that it is hot wheels, made in Hong Kong, and has a date of 1960 something (maybe 8 since 1968 was the first hot wheels year?). Now I'm no hot wheels guy, so my question is what type of car is it, when was it made and if the date on the bottom is the toy manufacture date or the car model date.

Haha!!! I used to have a couple exactly like that one the door is spring loaded and if you flip it around it looks like its in perfect condition then if you lightly bump it with something like another Matchbox car if flips around real quick and shows the dented side as if it was in a car accident.
I think that type of car is a DeLorean or something.. The date on the bottom.. Is probably a patent date and not the actual date that was made
