About Trenton

Trenton Hall - Founder and Diecast Enthusiast Trenton Hall is the founder and driving force behind Hallsguide. His journey into the world of diecast began as a childhood fascination, evolving into a lifelong passion. What started as a simple online price list for his personal Hot Wheels collection during his college years in 1998 has blossomed into one of the most trusted and comprehensive resources for diecast collectors worldwide. Trenton's vision for Hallsguide was to create more than just a price guide; he wanted to build a community where collectors could connect, share knowledge, and fuel their passion for diecast. His dedication to accuracy, insightful analysis, and engaging content has made Hallsguide a go-to destination for diecast enthusiasts of all levels. When he's not immersed in the world of diecast, Trenton enjoys spending time with family and working full-time as a computer science teacher and cross country & track coach. He believes that the joy of collecting lies not just in acquiring rare treasures but also in the connections forged within a passionate community. Fun Fact: Trenton also founded Diecast Republic in 2021 as a retail diecast store in Texas and found online at www.diecastrepublic.com

Is This the New Holy Grail of Hot Wheels?

The Hot Wheel Redline Club ’55 Chevy Bel Air Gasser has been making waves this week as an auction for one numbered #0001 out of 4000 has passed the $15,000 mark on E-Bay.  It will end Monday night at 9:30 CST.  Recently this model was selling for an average of $550 on Ebay.  There is currently another one, #53 of 4000 that is over $1300 right now on Ebay.

Is this the new trend in die cast collecting?    Would you drop big bucks for an item that there are 4000 of?  Does it make a difference if it’s numbered 1 of 4000?  Either way, the dynamics of collecting high end diecast is changing.  It will be interesting to see where this one ends up.
