1970 Hot Wheels Carabo Spectraflame Yellow — Casting Info · Complete Collector’s Guide
1970 Hot Wheels Carabo in Spectraflame Yellow. The shared casting number is 6420.
1970 Yellow release overview
The Yellow car is one of the 1970 Spectraflame releases. Yellow examples include United States and Hong Kong configurations. Known examples differ in base, interior and glazing; record those details instead of treating every yellow car as identical.
The real Alfa Romeo Carabo was a concept with distinctive wedge-shaped bodywork. Hot Wheels captures the low profile with opening doors, black rear louvers and an orange stripe across the nose. Check the doors and large windscreen carefully on a loose example; both are vulnerable to damage.
