Default Hot Wheels Don "The Snake" Funny Car Diecast

Flawless working Hotwheels Legends to Life Don "The Snake" Prudhomme.
It's a 1/24 scale Plymouth Barracuda working Funny Car.No imperfections at all in mint condition.
I've only taken it it out the box once since buying it brand new 20 years ago.I put batteries in it and tested it a few times and it performed perfectly.Funny Car,base & display case are in excellent to mint condition.No chips,no faded paint or scuffs.As you play the cassette tape,the body comes upwards,the blower belt turns the headers light up the body shakes,the rear wheels spin,the tree lights count down,and the late Steve Evans announces as it all as it puts a great big smile on your face.

Here's a couple of youtube vids showing one work..

Everything functions as they should in auto & manual mode.
Side A of the cassette plays the drag race sequence,side B plays interviews by Steve Evans and tons of burnouts.
Includes original box,ORIGINAL RARELY SEEN OUTSIDE SHIPPING CARTON,Funny car,display case,body hold open rod for display, and all original paperwork and cassette tape etc.Serial #'s match too.

As an added bonus,I'm including the the smaller scale 1/64 version Snake funny car that opens up too with same details.This little car was only included with the larger static version of this car,but when I bought this new from the factory,I asked them to include & charge me for one,along with the larger display car.
I'm the original owner,when I bought it from Mattel in the mid 1990's and so far it's spent 99.5% of its life in the box.
Uses 4 D cell batteries not included.
Asking $500 oBo with money back guarantee if not as stated.

I still have mine that my mom bought me off QVC. Sits on my desk. I have to put some batteries in it to see if it still works.
