The Corvette is a favorite model for diecast manufacturers and today, almost all the years are represented in small-scale examples. Here, the focus is on the C3 years, 1968-1982. The examples below are the best casting for each available year as represented in my collection. If you know of a '70, '73 or '75 Corvette in 1:64 scale, let me know. The C1, 2 and 4 models in my collection will be featured in a later issue.
