Now it's an Earl Sheib promo car.

They were promo cars given out by chevrolet dealers when you bought a vette that year. Only 60 cars were made.

Ive been looking everywhere for a rebuildable Barbie corvette for my son. I want to paint it to match my vette..... When ever I paint it.......

They are hard to find, now that Barbie got all white-trash and started driving mustangs.

People mod the hell of of the power-wheels toys. I have big plans IF I can ever find one that has all the original parts. (the hood falls off easy)
I want to add duel rear motors for posi traction, and wire it up to run off a 12v car battery, with built in charger. (Done safely of course). NOS button on steering wheel, and a real 12v car CD player with speakers in the trunk. And who knows how much further I will take it. 0 to 5 MPH in 2.2secs

As I child I remember going over to a friend's house that did that with his monster truck power wheel. He ran it directly off a car battery which made it a lot faster.
