Description
The '68 Corvette - Gas Monkey Garage is a 1/64th scale version of the real-life 1968 Chevrolet Corvette. This 1968 Chevrolet Corvette was commissioned by Hot Wheels and built by Gas Monkey Garage. The entire build was documented on the hit show "Fast N' Loud," documenting the level of craftsmanship and expertise that went into this one-of-a-kind build. It's no wonder this souped-up Chevy is also called the Midas Monkey.
