1997 Silver C5 Diecast
Hi everyone
I was wondering if anyone on this forum has any interest in diecast models?
I'm really looking for a 1997 C5 silver coupe diecast, been serching the net and ebay but for some reason, I can't find silver
I know GM made some small dealer models each year and I even saw something in costco a year or so ago but now that I want one, well you know that story.
So if anyone has some advice besides the typical ebay where I can get a diecast of a silver 97 C5 coupe please PM me?
Maybe I'll even get lucky and one of you will have one I can buy.
Thanks
Bruce

I have a silver 1998 C5 coupe with 2 tops in 1/18 scale with wagon wheels, It looks like it is made by UT Models. No box, Just sitting here collecting dust.

I saw a bunch of C5s at Sams Club a couple of weeks ago. Only $20 for 1/18th, I can't remember if there were any silver coupes. They didnt have a yellow coupe so I passed, I should have just got the yellow Z06, I might go back one day soon and pick one up.

Burrago ( sp?) made a 97 or 98 coupe in 1:18 scale... I have it. They are nearly impossible to find these days since fw chain stores carry the die-casts like they used to. I got it @ Kay bee back a few years ago. Silver with gray interior I think.
