1:6 Scale HIGHWAY 61 1957 Corvette 1/6 Scale HUGE...!!!!. Condition is "Used". Even though it has never been pulled out of the styrofoam base it has been opened. Never displayed though. Examine the pictures carefully and I have noted any issues that I could see, I never pulled it off the styrofoam base to really go through the sides or undercarriage of the vehicle but from what I could see for the sides I couldn’t see any paint defects. If additional pictures are required, please ask.... I did the best I could describing the 1:6 Diecast to the best of my knowledge but Iam no professional so there might be something I missed. It does have styrofoam dust on the seats and the wheels but will easily clean up with little effort, I will be leaving the detailing up to the buyer. Item is being sold as is with no returns.I cannot be held responsible for any damage encountered to the item while it’s in the shipping process but the 1:6 corvette does come in a styrofoam protective covering which is then placed in a box which is then put in another box so i would think that no damage should happen to it while in shipping. What you see is what you will get. These are the original photos of the 1957 1:6 scale Highway 61 diecast car you will receive. As shown in the photo there is the side mirror which was glued on I cannot guarantee that will stay together while in shipping but seemed to be glue together nicely.
IMPORT CHARGES
If your country of origin has import taxes please know what those are before you purchase, depending on which country you are from they can be quite pricey and as a seller I will not be held responsible or will not pay any import duty fees, those are solely up to the buyer.
CONDITIONJudge the condition from the pictures and I will gladly take as many photos as requested by interested buyers. This is a center piece model and will draw all eyes to it that enter the room. Ask any questions you may have, Iam the 2nd owner of this masterpiece
FLAWS
Only flaws that I could see is the paint chip by the passenger door, the antenna has a slight bend in it. The factory paint blemish on the inside of the side mirror and the fact that the side mirror was glued back on.
Everything functions as it should, windows roll up and down nicely, wheels turn with turn of steering wheel and drive shaft spins with spinning of the wheels, antenna goes up and down nicely, hood and trunk are nice and tight and stay up when lifted and not sagged out from years of displaying, suspension is nice and tight as it has lived its life in a box and no weight being put on it or stress from years of displaying. The gas cap, cowel vent and all other opening parts function as they should but I do advice extreme caution when functioning any of the components, due to the fact the pieces haven’t been functioned often they will be either tight or firm in place. The spare tire jack is under the carpet in the trunk by the spare tire. These do not come up for sale very often and an extremely sought after display piece by and for enthusiasts. Ask any questions you’d like and I will respond in a timely manner.
HUGE 1/6 1957 Corvette for 50th Anniversary in 2007!
