The story behind the '72 Stingray Convertible
The 1972 Stingray Convertible captures a definitive moment in American automotive history with its sleek, open-top design. This Hot Wheels model arrived as part of the Mainline assortment during the 2024 Factory Fresh series. Designed by Bryan Benedict, this miniature brings back classic curves that fans love. Because it is a standard Mainline release rather than a limited edition Treasure Hunt or Super Treasure Hunt, you can find these in regular toy stores and online shops fairly easily. The car celebrates vintage sports styling with its iconic split-window look replaced here by the cleaner lines of the late model C3 generation.
Materials, colors and value
This die-cast style vehicle uses a plastic base to keep costs low for mass production while maintaining good playability. You will see this Stingray in several shades of red, including Mille Miglia Red and Bright Red, paired with chrome interior details. The windows vary between smoke, tinted, or gray depending on the specific casting run it came from. As a 1/64 scale model, it fits perfectly alongside other classic cars in any display case. Since these are common Mainline items produced for general retail sale, they generally hold their face value unless you manage to find one with unique packaging errors.
Questions about the '72 Stingray Convertible
Is the '72 Stingray Convertible a Treasure Hunt?+
No, this specific release is not a Treasure Hunt. It belongs to the standard Mainline assortment under the Factory Fresh series from 2024. You can identify real Treasure Hunts by looking for a small flame logo on the base of the car and special paint treatments like Spectraflame.
How much is this Hot Wheels worth today?+
Since it is a common Mainline model from 2024, its value usually stays close to the original retail price of around $1.50 or slightly more if sold by individual collectors online. It does not command high prices unless found in rare sealed blister packs.
Who designed this Stingray casting?+
The design for this '72 Stingray Convertible is credited to Bryan Benedict. He created the tooling that allows Hot Wheels to replicate these classic lines accurately at a 1/64 scale using plastic materials for the body base.

This 2024 Mainline casting doesn't have enough market data yet, so this is an estimate based on its type, rarity and age. Value rises for older and rarer castings — a 1970s Mainline is worth far more than a current one. Prices are shown in EUR and refreshed as new market data arrives.
