Diecast Vette '78
For a while I'm looking for a nice Diecast model of my Silver Anniversary Edition '78 Vette. And yes, I've found some Diecast models of a '78. But not with the nice two-tone paint job.
Is there anybody who can tell me if there is a Diecast model of the Silver Anniversary Edition '78 Vette on the market with the two-tone paint job? And if there is, where I can get it.

UT has great models, but they are really hard to find.
Might want to check www.corvettemodels.com
or http://www.3ttoy.com/ut456.htm
Been looking for models myself lately, I'll let you know if I come across it

I found my UT 1/18 Silver Anniversary 2 tone on Ebay last year. Paid $29 and also $29 for a black 78, Both brand new in the box. I LUCKED OUT!! Both are out of production and probably only available "second hand" or from specialty dealers. Ecklers shows one in their catalog, $75.
I see a few 1/24 Franklin Mint SA two tones on Ebay pretty regularly. Range fron "reasonable"(used) to Very expensive("new" in the box).
Good luck in your search.
