Model Vettes (As in scale Model)
I'm not really into Models, but I got to thinkin' it would be cool to have one of MY Vette. I see tons of Models, but none of a 2004 Black Coupe.
Anyone have a hookup?
Not a collector or anything, I would just like it to be an "anatomically correct" version of it's bigger brother.
Thanks!
Ken

Check out the Die-Cast & Collectibles Forum. The '97 was made in a 1:24 and also a 1:64. The '03 was made in a both a 1:18 and 1:64....it was correct until I started appearance mods.
I have all 3 which are used in a display. You can find all 3 on ebay and usually in larger toy stores.

I found mine on ebay
I found mine on Ebay, a 1:18 scale by Auto Art. Same color, body style, etc. I was looking for about 6 months before one showed up for bid. Good luck.

I have the Ertl also. This one has a removable top and opening doors. Underside has painted exhaust and oil filter. Good model.
