The 2009 Keystone Diecast CARnival event car will be a 2007 Shelby GT from Greenlight! The run quantity will be limited to 150. The cars will be available at the even and if any are available after the show we will offer them up to the rest of the diecast community.

The art has been done for this car and will soon be going to the printer for it's custom tampo work and then we will package them in their custom heat sealed CARnival packaging.

Below is a a glimpse of the final artwork and car mockup. Hope you enjoy!

The car will actually be black with the silver art. Here is a photo from GLCollector that shows the actual car that we are starting with...

Oh, and one last thing! For those that have never seen a custom tampo printed onto a diecast car you may have a chance to see it up close and personal at this years CARnival!

The vendor that we chose to do our cars this year is located nearby (NJ) and said that they will most likely come to the show with a show specific model to print on site as a demonstration.

I am not sure if they will be selling those demo cars or handing them out at the show. I hope to clarify that close to event time. :thumbsup:

Oops. My bad. I am so used to giving props to JLCollector. The same guy runs the site called GLCollector. That is where I pulled the pic from.

Hey Nick, care to elaborate on quantities or "special" cars? I remember last year there were a few event cars in "different" colors. I recall one event car last year was black(majority was yellow), will one car ths year be "green"?;)

So far all we have on hand is the black ones. If I were to come up with some other versions of the car I am sure I could get them made as we did with the JL's last year.

I live in the Pittsburgh area (about 3 miles from the Allegheny County Airport), and it took me a little over 4 hours to drive to Denver, PA last year. I drove the speed limit though.

Where do you live Tuch?

Tuch, you are very fortunate that the PA Turnpike entrance is in Monroeville. Denver, PA is a straight shot from Monroeville, PA.

Try to attend the Carnival.:wave:
