I searched, but couldn't find any evidence that a 1:1 of this ever existed. If any of yall, have info, I'd love to know.

I don't know if a 1/1 existed but I bought it anyway because it was Corvette from the mints and I love the spun aluminum wheel discs.

I remember when you could get on this site and get all sorts of information on mint cars! Sad to say the site and all of its info are long gone!

Although I started building model cars early in life, I got into collecting die casts late, so I missed out on a lot.
