Hot Wheels RLC 1962 Ford F100 #1

The Hot Wheels 1962 Ford F100, catalog number JJY60, is a collector’s model released as an RLC Exclusive, available only through the Red Line Club. This 1:64 scale replica is aimed at adult collectors and fans of classic American pickups, distinguishing itself from standard toy cars with its metal base, rubber tires, Spectraflame paint, and an opening hood with a detailed engine.

The 1962 Ford F100 casting was designed by Brendon Vetuskey and debuted in 2022 as part of the RLC Exclusive series under the number GXJ18. The casting features an opening hood that reveals a Mileage Maker inline-six engine. The 2026 JJY60 version is finished in Spectraflame teal, a translucent turquoise paint applied directly over polished metal, which is reserved for the brand’s most exclusive releases. Details include refined headlights, taillights, trim, emblems, and a license plate reading "SLIXT2". The base is silver metal, the windows have a light smoke tint, and the interior is finished in a turquoise-and-white color scheme that matches the exterior. The model rolls on RRICE wheels with white-line tires, which are Real Riders with rubber tires. The country of origin is China.

The original vehicle is part of the Ford F-Series, which has been in continuous production since 1948—specifically the fourth generation, designed by George Walker and introduced in 1960, featuring a lower and wider cab than its predecessor. The 1962 model year introduced the new Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission, replacing the older Ford-O-Matic, while retaining a highly efficient, minimalist body design. By the end of 1962, a variant with a separate cargo box returned to the lineup due to concerns that the unibody design would flex under heavy loads; the unibody version was abandoned entirely by mid-1963. Production of this generation ended in 1966, and 24,601 units of the F-100 were built in the 1962 model year alone.

For the collector, the JJY60 is a very striking item: turquoise Spectraflame with a matching two-tone interior, white-line tires, and an opening hood revealing the "six-cylinder" engine. Red Line Club models are not sold at standard retail and consistently hold high value on the secondary market.
