Go to our Portal and click the Franklin Mint button. They have an '88 available still, and they used to have an '84 but I don't know if it's still available.

Thanks but Franklin mint only makes 1/43 and 1/24 scale. Im looking for the little larger scale to match into my collection. 1/24 is like 7 or 8 inches, 1/18 is around a foot or so.

I'm looking for a Y2K vert kit. If necessary, will go with Die cast but would dearly love a complex kit

Bro, that car was on display at Carlisle last year, got some pictures of it somewhere around here. Sure brought back the "memories", I watched him race. I "believe" (if I remember correctly) the car is back in the family of the original owner/racer/record setter. I could be wrong, maybe someone else here knows. If so, please refresh my aging brain.:(

I buy almost all my cars through Ebay, great deals on some and some really hard to find one are there. just be careful and don't pay more for what you could get it for at and online store which lots of people do

Picked up a 1/18 black 2001 Z06 from Wally-Mart. I believe the first Z06 I have seen. The vents don't show very well in black but in it's a Z06.
$15.
Happy birthday to me.
I have some 18, 1/18 C5. Various colors. An Advanced Auto parts store red one. 03 Pace. The 3 Daytona Pace cars with the checkerboard design. Blue, red & yellow. A 98 Pace car. Have not seen a white C5 1/18 but do have a white promo.
Insurance is much cheaper on 1/18 vs 1/1. LOL

Bought a 2001 Black Z06 here in Maryland in 2001! Also have a yellow and a silver in my collection - overall I have around 100 1/18 scale Vettes
