The NCRS shipping report I received for one of my 1966 Corvette's, an L72, built November 12, 1965, shows it was delivered to dealer Code 0, Zone 11. Original dealer name/address was Keystone Motor Company, Chicago, IL. Anyone remember them or have any further info? TIA Dave

Dave, I read one of your posts from 2000 stating that you once owned an early March 1966 Big Block Roadster 427/425. My 1966 was an early March Car originally shipped to Sausman Chevrolet in Lemoyne, Pa.. I know this is a long shot, yet I thought I would ask!

John, Sorry, it is not the same car. I special ordered my car on March, 1st, 1966, it was scheduled to be built on March 9th, 1966. It was a 1966 L72 convertible, Milano Maroon with Saddle vinyl, ordered from Jim Funston Chevrolet, in Detroit, MI. I also know where it is currently located, not for sale. Dave
