Exoto are pleased to introduce the definitive model replica of Chevrolet's muscle-bound factory special racer. The Lightweight Corvette Grand Sport. Equipped with a 377 cubic inch aluminum-block, it was designed to blow the hoods off Ferraris and Carroll Shelby's Cobras at famous world tracks like Sebring or Le Mans.
After the Prototypes had proven their mettle, 125 production street beasts would be unleashed by Corvette Godfather, Zora Arkus-Duntov. It never happened. The GM boardroom in Detroit put a stop to the cars construction - but they couldn't stop the 5 Grand Sports already built. And neither could the competition!
