Found these at TRU a few days ago, very nice! I have no idea if there are any chase cars in this run.

Got a pic of that chase car? Any special box markings or just the metallic finish is the differance? Anyone spotted a chase car version for the 70 Camaro or vega?
Oh btw, new member here. Glad to be aboard.
Thanks

The Vega you saw at Big Lots is a stock 4 banger. This is a totally different Vega.
