1) Promotional Models

Special Corvette Z06 Combo
When Chevy decided it was time to take off the gloves and respond to the challenge of their competitors with a new, more-ferocious-than-eve Corvette, the first thing on their list was a little history lesson. After a little digging, the Chevy engineers came across the original Z06 concept conceived by chief engineer, Zora Arkus-Duntov for the 1963 Sting Ray. The idea of a race-reary Corvette that could be bought right off the showroom floor was exactly what they were looking for.

As a result of the success of the Z06 for 2001 Chevrolet authorized a special promo package that includes: Two 1:25 scale plastic promotional models pre-colored in Red. The 1963 has a black interior and the 2001 has a modified red/black Z06 interior.

We are offering this two-pack at a cost of $65.00 including shipping & handling with insurance.



1963 Corvette Split Window Coupe Combo
Originating as far back as the 1959 XP-720 program, the 1963 Corvette Sting Ray was the brainchild of GM stylists Bill Mitchell and Larry Shinoda. By the time the '63 rolled around, the all-new Vette had become a car with more passenger and luggage room, better ride and handling, and better performance. Owing much to the experimental CERV-1 race car, the Sting Ray design employed a frame-mounted differential with U-jointed halfshafts linked by a transverse leaf spring. And of course, who could forget that boattail rear deck and split window. People either loved it or hated it, but everybody talked about it. In fact many enthusiasts still regard the original Sting Ray as simply the best Corvette ever.

In commemoration of this unique car Chevrolet authorized the release of a special promo package that includes: Two 1:25 scale plastic promotional models pre-colored in Bronze and Black with highly detailed chassis and interiors.

We are offering this two-pack at a cost of $53.00 including shipping & handling with insurance.
