I walked in to a local Zellers store (a Canadian version of K-Mart) and there was a red one and a blue one on the shelf.
That was back in August.

I got a red, yellow and blue one at Target. I have also seen them on eBay, from time to time.

I don't collect truck stuff specifically, but I collect so much stuff generally that I'm bound to have a few things. I can't really even remember everything that's hanging around boxed up.

You probably can't tell, but way down on the far left bottom corner of this case is a green '66 promo:


And in the middle of this picture is a red '60 Dealer promo:


I do know I have the original boxes for both of those. I've got a lot of that newer stuff that's in this thread, but a lot of it is so buried it may never see the light of day again.

[LILRED66]

Those are available at Target in the midwest. I have also seen them on eBay. I have the red, yellow and blue ones. Good luck with your search.

Here's my one of those:

I found these cool ’62 Chevy Hotwheels 2008 First Editions tonight at Wal-Mart in Lansing, MI. I grabbed every one I could find too….

Hopefully, the hotel maid doesn't steal them out of my suitcase tomorrow....

[jonzcustomshop]

those hot wheels are my new favorite casting,I can't wait until they start using them for limiteds with real riders and better paint jobs.
I bought 6 of them when I first found them, that same night I also found 3 treasure hunts, and 1 super trea$ure hunt,I should have been excited about the treasure hunt score, but all I could think about was getting home and opening my new 62 truck!

Have they produced this style in previous years?

No, this is a new Hotwheels model for 2008. Sure is cool though, eh?

Must be a few variations out there. Yours has an extra gold stripe on the top, gold surf board, and gold wheels. Mine the surf board is black and the wheels are silver.

[LILRED66]

Here are a few '62 Chevy C10 lowriders I found on eBay:

[jonzcustomshop]

they will change the paint and wheels on the hot wheels over this year, while it is still a first edition.
This is thier gimmick to get you to buy more than one.
