I follow a Hot Wheels group on Facebook, that's about the going rate for the pair. I've been looking for this one for at least a month and finally lucked out.

I watched a show about the history of Hot Wheels this Summer.

They accredit the Snake & Mongoose marketing as the main thing that put Hot Wheels as a big seller.

What a sin, a 72 with round lights.  Criminals.  I'm glad you found a 72, and yellow.  What are the odds.

Just noticed the tail lights! What's up with that or was that the way or really was?

72-74 Barracuda's have ROUND lights....

was there more than 1 car each year (show cars)?  I'm sure there are more changes/differences  :dunno:
the progression of sponsors is one clue to the date sequence over the years

1970 yellow
1971 yellow & white (Snake II)
1972 white
1973 yellow

I know the 72 has round tail lights but that Hot Wheels Cuda on the hauler does not. Just odd that they call it a 72 on the package .

Found two of the Dusters today but only took one home. They're a pretty cool pair of cars (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181116/18be502cdeb01762de6fc39b15e7d43b.jpg)

I'll keep that in mind if I find another. I wouldn't be looking to make anything off of the folks here,  I just enjoy trying to find the ones I like.
