Not Tim...but I've stayed in a Bates Motel......Boss Hoss...a custom 1967 Mustang that you had to mail away to get. It was chrome plated. IIRC it was $1 which got you the car, a set of HW decals, a magazine and a catalog. I know I still have the car and I think I have the rest...but still packed away.

Full name: "Boss Hoss Silver Special", Spoilers version of the Custom Mustang, only available as a mail away when you joined the Hot Wheels Collectors Club in 1969. It was followed by a chrome version of the Heavy Chevy (Camaro) and King Kuda (Barracuda).

Sorry I was late on this Dean. All correct info handed to you. I still have all 3 in my collection. They all were made in regular spectraflame colors too. That Boss Hoss Silver Special was top of my collection as a kid. It was the koolest.

Yeah, LUV them ol' redline Hot Wheels. I've got all three of the original chrome club cars too! My Boss Hoss is from my childhood collection and the others I picked up here and there. VERY pricey cars today! I recently picked up, on evil-bay, an original 1970 Hot Wheels color catalog that, I believe, came in the club kit. It has The Snake and Mongoose funny cars on the cover and a great section inside showing Tom Daniel sketchin' in a junk yard. There are several of his models pictured too. Great stuff!

That's exactly where it came from Charles! I still have mine, and Tom autographed that junkyard shot many years ago for me.
