Topic starter  

I'm a tried and true Ford guy, from my Cobras and Ford GTs to my Mustangs but in 1967 Chevy came out with a car that I really liked - and that says a lot because that was the year that my favorite Mustang of all time the Shelby GT-350 came out.

I decided that my collection needed this car to sit next to the Shelby Mustang. So I took a chance on this Ertl offering and was pleasantly surprised

I was particularly taken by the color scheme, even though I'm not generally a fan of yellow. This Z28 is very well crafted - Ertl at its best

Looks wonderful; congrats on the purchase. The pale yellow is period pastel and looks nice with the contrasting black stripes and interior. Ertl did a nice job!

Chevys and Fords look fine sitting next to one another; so long as they don't get involved in a revving contest!!

Very good looking and performing automobile and an extremely cool 1/18 from Ertl. I am happy to have one of the Ertl diecasts of this one.

As a Ford lover I find nothing wrong with loving me some Camaros too.

Frank, did you go to the Ford100 Celebration  ?  My youngest brother and our BIL went and really enjoyed ourselves. Wish we’d had more time.
