Extreme high quality and superb detail describe this 10" long diecast from GMP. You have to see the quality to believe it. One of the nicest diecasts we have. It is very heavy. Part of the SCCA Sports Car Club of America Trans Am series
The ITT Automotive Detroit Grand Prix has added to the rivalry between Ford Motor Company and General Motors Corporation by launching a perpetual trophy which, starting with the 1995 race, annually documented the battle for fastest sedan in the Motor City 100 SCCA Trans-Am Race. The competition is staged at the Raceway On Belle Isle Park during the ITT Automotive Detroit Grand Prix. This race embodies the ultimate American automobile showdown; Ford versus Chevrolet. The Trans-Am Championship entered its 30th year of competition in 1995. Chevy Camaros and Ford Mustangs have been dueling in the Trans-Am since the 1960's, when Mark Donohue, in a Roger Penske-prepared Camaro, waged war with the likes of Mustang pilots Jerry Titus and Parnelli Jones. Three decades later, the battle remains as hot as ever, as evidenced by the fierce competition between the two manufacturers during the 1994 season. Chevrolet's Scott Pruett won the Driver's Championship, while Ford, thanks in part to Ron Fellows victory in the Motor City 100, took the Manufacturer's title. gmp13007
