Hot Wheels 1964 Lincoln Continental (No. 3136)

This item is a Hot Wheels collectible, specifically the 'Lincoln Continental 1964' model, No. 3136. It is presented in its original, unopened blister pack, which consists of a blue cardboard backing card and a clear plastic bubble encasing the vehicle. The cardboard card features the iconic Hot Wheels flame logo in red and orange, with 'Hot Wheels' printed in white. Underneath the logo, 'MATTEL' is visible within a red oval. The packaging clearly states 'Lincoln Continental 1964' and 'No. 3136'. An illustration of a stylized blue car is printed on the card above the blister. The car itself is a die-cast miniature of a 1964 Lincoln Continental, depicted in a creamy white or light ivory color. It features prominent chrome-colored accents, particularly on the grille, bumpers, side trim, and wheels. The wheels appear to be multi-spoke design typical of Hot Wheels models from its era. The vehicle's interior is not clearly visible but seems to be a light tone, possibly beige or white. The overall condition of the item appears to be excellent, consistent with a new, stored collectible. There are no obvious signs of wear, damage, or repairs to either the packaging or the car itself. The plastic bubble is clear and intact, and the cardboard backing shows minimal to no creasing or edge wear, suggesting it has been well-preserved. This piece represents a mass-produced toy car with collector appeal, indicative of late 20th or early 21st-century manufacturing by Mattel. The craftsmanship is standard for Hot Wheels, focusing on realistic detailing for the scale.
