Description[]

The '58 Corvette Coupe is a Hot Wheels casting based on the GM production car and was recreated in 1/64 scale by Hot Wheels designer Larry Wood. Despite the name of the casting, the '58 Corvette Coupe name is not accurate as the Corvette was never available in coupe form until 1963; a removable hard top could however be ordered. Larry created two versions for collectors, one version has a blown engine and the second version has an opening hood. However; the metallic purple painted casting introduced in 1995 and distributed in 1996 and 1997 as well - did not come in a closed hood (none blown engine) version.

The casting features the same toy number as the Packin' Pacer, 2015; this is also in the vein where both the Thunderbird Stocker and '90 T-Bird also feature the same toy number.
