Complete promo model list?

CandyRed77 · 09-12-2009, 03:08 AM

Hi guys,

I started collecting the Corvette promo models and have been digging on the internet for a complete list of what's out there. Anybody any clue if that's available. I have found some sites that list what they have for sale, but no complete listing from 53 to 07 yet...

Thanks, regards, Sonny

The only thing I've been able to find, listing body style and colors for Corvette Promos, is an older publication. It's called 'Promotional Press Release Magazine'. I don't know if it's still being published. I found a phone number inside my copy, 770-460-1654. I hope this helps you.
I presently have 75 Corvette promos. Including an original 1953, thru 2007.

I don't have "75" promos (wow man). I have only about 25.

You can check out my Corvette promos here.

TRy Bob's Promotional Cars at http://www.bobspromotionalcars.com/. If he doesn't have one, I'll bet he knows who does.

Years ago, Bill Landis (who writes the "Model Scene" section for Vette Vues magazine) wrote a book covering all Corvette toys and models through around 1973 or 74. It was called "Vette Vues Model Facts" and included promos, model kits, Hot Wheels, tin plate, slot cars, etc...... Vette Vues magazine has run articles on Corvette promos monthly for years. I don't know if any of the Model Facts books still exist (well, mine does) but you can try them to see and also see if they have ever compiled a promo listing based on the research published in the magazine. Bill also deals in Corvette promos and toys, so I'm sure he can help you in some ways.

Bill Landis can be reached at 1-717-273-8977 and Vette Vues number is1-386-775-2512.

There you go again "evading and spinning"...

CandyRed77 is asking for a list of all Corvette promos? It's a good question and I don't have a complete list, so I'm trying to add value to this thread by providing a link to my piddly little promo collection as FYI to those that want to know what's out there...gosh I hope you will stop picking on me because I clearly do not deserve it...
