Been hunting for one of these for many years and the hunt is over ! Near the end of their production run some of the original four TD Snap-Tites were molded in orange plastic , not many and they're pretty rare . I've managed to get my hands on a couple of each except for the Boss Mustang and the only one I had ever seen was not for sale . Last month I picked up two Boss Mustangs , one was green with blue glass and the other one was a complete molded in orange Boss Mustang . After unpacking I was surprised to find no broken parts !   A few minutes later it was back together .   Here's the complete set . The Vette is badly faded and my Mustang looks kind of plain , I may have to put some of those original stickers on it !  |

Wow, nice collection ! I know the white molded parts are rare, but I've never seen orange molded kits . These simple kits were popular but originals are hard to come by .I feel lucky to have a blue Dune Rat and a red Thunder Bug in my collection

They also molded some in Orange/Silver , not as rare as the White but still very rare . |

Very nice collection Bob!! Its crazy what the cost of these kits are now. Thanks Mike ! I've got more of these kits than I can count and luckily most were bought before prices got too crazy . A few like this Orange Mustang I did pay dearly for , it's one of those "buy it now 'cause you'll never see another one" deals .  |
