Wooden C5
Does anyone know where I can get a decorative hand carved C5 for my soon to be new Grandson? I see lots of 57s, 62s& 63s

I can't say that I've ever seen a wooden C5.

I bought a die cast '53 Corvette for my grandson, who was born in July of last year. My plan is to get him a different year on every birthday. I figured I might as well start him young.

I saw a site that does wood carvings/models with mahogony. Don't know if I am can post there website, as they are not a site vendor.
I recall them doing multiple years and have to imagine they are more than capable of reproducing any years if given photos from all four sides.
Pretty sure they would call themselves something like "mahogonymodels".
Could always google mahogonymodels; I guess. Think that would work?
Let us know!

mahoganymodels.com worked for me. The models run about $65 bucks or so. They didn't have a C5, but you could ask.
