Where are some good places to look for a 63 SWC die cast model? What are reasonable prices nowadays?

Thanks.

E-bay is probably your best choice as most have been out of production since 2003.What color are you looking for? Auto Art is suppose to be releasing some .but don't hold your breath as they were announced 4 or 5 years ago and still aren't on the shelf.

If you have a Cracker Barrell Restaraunt near you. You might want to check outr their Country Store.
I have three 63 Split window Coupes from the store.
They have Die Cast toys there and usually have Corvettes C-1s, and C-3s also.

Ertl made one 63 SWC with Black interior w/hubcapswheels and one w/red interior w/knock-off wheels. The Black 50th Anniversary car has Hubcaps and Black interior.Like this one.

one with a better price,but bad picture.

Thanks.
I have a Franklin Mint 1/24th scale in Red. It is not a fuelie. This is about the best detail you can get at any price. I believe this model originally sold for around $150.00. Someone could probably correct me on that if I'm wrong. I may even have the original box, but not sure as we are just now removing things from the cabinets and getting ready to move. If you would want this at $75.00 plus 14.95 for shipping email me direct at (dcress@adams.net) I'll probably list this on Ebay otherwise as that was my plan for the rest of this stuff.

IF there is interest I'd be glad to let forum members know first before I list anything.

PLEASE EMAIL AND NOT PM as I check email frequently.
