On the main menu page under General Corvette Topics, you'll find a sub forum for diecast cars. Lots of information and sources there. I think I found mine at MID AMERICA MOTOR WORKS (MAMO)...

http://www.mamotorworks.com/corvette...les-1-337.html

EBAY also usually has them if you like that venue.

I have a 1:18th scale 2000 Millenium Yellow with black interior convertible die-cast model. It was manufactured by UT which has since been purchased by Auto Art.

They have been made and are are there. You just need to find one.

I also suggest you check out and repost in the diecast section.

Die Cast and Collectables and then EBay is my top two suggestions as well.

Good Luck

I've got one.

Made by UT Models. 1:18 scale. The sticker on the box says, "1 of 5000"

Box also has this phone number: 847-963-0002 and this URL: www.utmodel.com.

I bought it 6 years ago from Ecklers for $49. I have the original box, the car, the display platform, etc. Its likely I even have the original receipt! All in perfect condition.

The hood, doors and trunk open. The steering wheel actually turns the front wheels from left to right! There is absolutely no dust accumulated on this model because I keep it in a sealed freezer bag. I know, I'm kinda **** about some stuff.

You can have original packaging and all but because it is no longer available retail and only 5000 were made by UT my price is ridiculously high.

Good luck!
..rickko..
