| 1953 Corvette! This was the original Corvette. It was simple and featured vestigal wings, a touch of chrome, and a Polo White fiberglass body.� A modest 115 horse power 235.5 cubic inch inline 6-cylinder Blue Flame powerplant.� A modest 300 cars were made and sales were slow for the first few years.� It grew into America's greatest automotive legend. This die cast version is from Maisto (TM). 1969 Corvette! This year 116 buyers got the 427 cubic inch big block V-8 conservatively rated at 430 horsepower but realistically offering much more.�� The early 70s brought emissions controls, safety standards, and labor troubles.� But, the legendary American sports car continued! This 1:18 version is from HotWheels Collectibles (TM) It features a detachable T-top, realistic tires, and side pipes. See our other Corvette pages to see the story of this great car! |
