Did I find a Chase?

I have heard the the true "Clear" M2's in the Authentics were Chases. Well I stopped by the local WalMart to check to see if things had been restocked since Christmas, but not much of anything really hanging excep for a few scattered HW's, Jada's and MB and a few other brands I'd never seen. Then I saw some M2's all cleanly racked up on the pegs. I started looking through them since this was the first time I had ever actually got to see them in person. Going through the pegs, not expecting to find anything, just checking out what the line had and looking at the different colors and details. I decided I would pick up a few more of them, as I thought they were neat, especially since they are very different castings too. So while looking through the cars, I noticed this truely clear 57 Ford Fairlane. The other one was another color and not one of the others was completely clear. So did I luck out and find my first chase in the wild?

Thats a cool car. I dont know if it is a chase but it sure is neat.

I thought the chase had to have clear seats. Could be wrong but still a nice looking car.

Thats a regular car , they do make 1 or 2 clear bodies in each Clearly Autothentics release so far . Chase car has clear seats & clear engine also .... I had picked up a clear body 54 Bel Air thinking the same thing , but it also wasnt a chase ... Wish my local Walmart carried M2's . The only one Ive found is 35 miles from where I live ...

Oh well. Now I can open it up without feeling guilty about freeing a chase car. Thanks for the info guys. I had a feelin I wouldn't be that lucky

Are there any in particular you need Dave? I can gladly pick some up for you this weekend. This is the first time I have seen them there, so maybe its gonna start happening at other walmarts

I don't like the colored see through cars, but I would love to find a few clear Fords like you've got there.
