Default Wil Cooksey Diecast

I am a new member living in Ontario Canada

Last fall I acquired a 2008 Limited Edition 427 Corvette - Wil Cooksey #58 with only 3,500 miles on it.

I would like to purchase a matching Diecast model

Any suggestions where I might find one?

First, welcome to Corvette Forum. Second, Google is your friend. EBAY and Amazon are possibilities as well as websites that deal in diecast models.

Also be sure to check the Auto Extras & Memorabilia section. Good luck!

Welcome, try looking in Germany for collectibles, they seem to always have the discontinued and rare types.. but you will pay a premium

Franklin Mint made that model issued in Nov. 2009, Number F856. I'm guessing the best place to find that would be E-Bay. You might find it at some high end vendors...but you're looking for a needle in a haystack. It might take a while, but keep checking e-bay. Another place to keep checking is phillymint.com. They get a lot of rare FM cars. Good luck with your search....hope you find it.

Don, I have Cooksey #186, that I acquired in Toronto last June, it is a Quebec City car via TO. I live in New Brunswick. I have another friend in Moncton with a zero miles Cooksey, and a friend in PEI with another Cooksey. I too am looking for a Cooksey diecast model. I have found some via Google and Ebay, but very expensive in my mind, like $300 US etc etc. If you find a source pls advise. Are you on Facebook, I could find you there and private message with email etc.
Enjoy your Cooksey. were you signed up for the Kingston Corvette Invasion, now postponed till 2021.
