Well 42 years after building that model the kids are gone and I am a proud owner of a 1959 Corvette. The "Corvette Barn" (owners Bob and Nancy) a local Corvette dealership is where it found me.

Taking me into the back building, sitting in the corner with parts piled all around it was a 1959 Dark green with a gold cove and red interior Corvette. A true project car just like the one I built from a plastic model when I was 13. My wife Jane encouraged me to go for it and I did.
