Very impressive!!

What year is the Vette from Austin Powers? I've never see the movie. I'm a big fan of the mid 60s hard tops.

Afraid it's a soft-top - the one from The Spy Who Shagged Me. Box doesn't give a year, and the net gives it anywhere from '65-'67. According to IMCDb the car in the movie was a 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray [C2]. The Mako Shark is another soft-top, and from '61, but it's the gorgeously detailed AutoArt version.

Forgot to mention in original post, I also have a model of a 1955 Chevy 3100 pickup. It came in Teal, but I'm in the process of converting it to the beige truck Clint Eastwood drove in Every Which Way But Loose complete with toolbox, new mirrors, seat and bumpers. It's my first custom job, and it's on the back burner at present. Maybe I'll get back to it after the summer.
