So I found an '83 Vette

[taylorsk8]

It is in rough shape. Must be one of the test cars.....

OK, not a full size car but it does say '83. Chevy must have released the car to toy manufacturers before they decided not to have an '83 model year.

Hahaha! Is that ever cool! Looks to be in slightly better shape than most of the 83 Vettes GM made. Great find!

I was playing cars with my daughter at my wife's family cabin and found it in with them.

A rare gem indeed. For a minute you had my heart racing Taylor....

I've seen a full sized one in the Bowling Green museum and I believe there's another somewhere but apparently that's it for '83's.

Great find.

 

[Case75]

Cool! Have you had it appraised?

 

[taylorsk8]

In one of my corvette books I remember it saying they made 43 of them for testing purposes. But as testing goes not many of them survived. I did hear about the one a Bowling Green though.
