It was sold by the Volo Auto Museum, at www.volostarcars.com "1971 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible: From the movies 'Rush Hour' 1 and 2, beautifully restored, mirror finish, black paint, rebuilt 350, customized with ac, Dayton wire wheels, 2 Corvettes were built for 'Rush Hour'. One was sold after the 1st movie was made, this is the only car used in both. The dash is autographed by both Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan. Fully Documented. $49,998." You may have seen the second car used from the film, which could have been a '72. Considering '71s and '72s are identical, this is very possible.
