I can not agree with you on preserving a car just because it is an
older Corvette.... I personally would love to have a C1 sitting on
a modern frame with modern brakes and suspension with a Modern
powerful fuel efficient engine under the hood ...best of both worlds..
Great L:looks with all the advantages of a new car...without the
depreciation factor ...

My opinion of "most" survivor Corvettes is about the same...
Just do not see how I could keep one in that condition..
I understand the need for them BUT NOT IN MY GARAGE...
