Happy David Day

with one comment

How many people have a little brother whose birthday happens to be today? I wonder if he reads here or whether I should find a better way to send him a greeting. I have an idea, how about you all surprise him with messages, too! Especially, if you don’t actually know him. You can tell him I sent you. Write to him at drghays at yahoo dot com. David, if you are reading here today, just ignore the last paragraph. Happy birthday.

Here is a present for you, from me. An update on our investment:

.

The 1969 Boss Hoss Mustang was one of 3 chrome cars that were given as a part of the Hot Wheels Club Kit in 1970. There was the Heavy Chevy (Camaro), King Kuda (Barracuda) and the Boss Hoss (Mustang).
The Mustang is the most common of the three with the Heavy Chevy being the rarest. The Mustang in mint condition with it’s stripes intact is worth about $25.

Interesting that if it’s worth about $25, how come in auction, bids are over double that? People are funny. But we know it’s not worth nothin’ unless you sell it. SELL IT!? You gotta be kidding! Then I wouldn’t get to play with it. Don’t worry, it’s safe with me. I’ll put it back in a safe place in a min… in a few…  in a little while.
