Welcome to C3VR. I've got the 3 1/18 UT's that represent my full size Vettes. Also the same in 1/24. Love the detail of those UTs. If I bought any more then I'd start wanting the real thing too. Gotta keep it in check.
Someone over here has a ton of diecasts(Redwingvette?), posted pics, WOW!

I see you have a pace car/I'm going to take a closer look at a what I think is a fake pc tomrrow.I did a premlim look today but no one was around to talk to.I figure it's a fake because it don't have the pc seats and the t tops are black.From the looks of it it might be a $5000.00 car.It ain't bad but I bet it aint a real pc.I know how to tell my the vin but I'm not going to let him know that and see where he leads me.Ought to be fun

As long as you're wise to the VIN you got the upper hand. Is he passing it off as real?

Back to the subject at hand, I am interested in getting a diecast of an '82, but not the CE.
Has anyone seen any non-CE '82's.

Amatures!!! |laugh| |laugh| I have over 1,450 Vettes in my collection. Die-cast, plastic models,ceramic, wood, you name it. It DEFINATLY can get out of hand!! I don't believe I've ever seen a 1:18 Die-Cast '82, tho, other than the CE. I do have all scales(1:18,1:24, etc.) I even have two 'kiddie cars', one 'lectric, and one pedal car. I think I need a DR.!! |laugh| I love the UTs, and Danbury Mint has super-detailed cars. Also, Exoto has really nice ones,too($$$) I believe that Action did make a 1:32 scale '82 in the "Zora Signature" series. They are hard to find, tho. |thumb| |wavey|
