This is the 1966 Chevrolet Corvette C2 Stingray Resin Model Car in 1:18 Scale by GT Spirit.
Letty Ortiz, played by Michelle Rodriguez in the Fast & Furious franchise, drives a stunning 1966 Chevrolet Corvette C2 Sting Ray in The Fate of the Furious (Fast 8, 2017).This rally red classic features pro-touring modifications:
- wide fender flares
- massive tires
- a powerful big-block V8
In The Fate of the Furious, the prominent Corvette is a widebody classic painted fire-engine red, used in the New York City chase to pursue Dom. It was a resto-mod built from a barn find, featuring flared fenders, modern brakes (Wilwood), a powerful crate engine, and aftermarket wheels, making it a true performance car despite its vintage look, though it gets damaged during the chase.
