This marks the sixth time that Corvette has been awarded that honor. The other pace cars are as follows: 1978 Corvette, 1986 Corvette, 1995 Corvette, 1998 Corvette and for the 2002 race, this 50th anniversary 2003 Corvette paced the big event. Franklin has previously offered us collectors the 1986 and 1998 pace car replicas. Based on their 2003 50th anniversary coupe model, this pace car is identical in every way except for the addition of the pace car graphics and limited edition plate affixed to the chassis beneath the driver’s seat.
As with the 1998 pace car, the graphics are tampo painted on the model beautifully. The same features apply here as they did to the 50th anniversary coupe model. The hood opens to reveal good engine detail. The doors are precisely fit and offer no undue gapping. The hidden headlight pod revolves upward and the hatch opens to a fully carpeted trunk. The interior carries all of the standard amenities and looks grand in the shale color. The wheels, in champagne, are a good match and are accurate to the 1:1 pace car. The replica also comes with the body-colored roof panel, first debuted on the 50th anniversary coupe model. Other previous iterations sported the smoky tinted panel. Either way, the roof panel fits nicely into the trunk space.
