Default Wedding Help - Diecast Cake Topper Needed

All,

My fiance (the corvette enthusiast) and I planning to be married in 6 weeks. I would like to have his restored corvette as a cake topper on the grooms cake. He has a white, 1964 coupe stingray and I cannot find this diecast model anywhere. He currently drives a '00 Z06, but don't you think the '64 would be more meaningful as a cake topper? If you could advise me where I should look for the diecast model, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you so much!!

Not sure what size you're looking for, but if a 1/64 scale would work (small hot wheels size, about 1 3/4") this might work.

Hot wheels has their "HW Showroom" series available, and in that series they have a red/yellow 1964 Sting Ray coupe.

You could buy this, and have someone paint it white. A basic color swap wouldn't be that difficult for anyone who has worked with models before.

They have some on eBay and amazon. My wife just bought one at target for me.

Where are you located? Maybe someone local to you can help you out.

Congratulations on the wedding!

I used to be a dealer for Muscle Machines. I believe they had a '63 in 1/64 scale. I know I have a white one in my display case. They also had Red, White and Blue ones. I have those new in the packages. I can get more details tomorrow when I get home. Just pay shipping and I can send you 1 or 2 or what ever. I'll see if I can find a picture on the net that I can upload. These are a little more radical with superchargers and big tires.

Sent you a PM with a link.

Franklin Mint makes a 1/24 scale 64 coupe in white.
