Re: Corvette Grand Sport

I have one in 1/24th scale and 1/18th scale. Will that help. Seriously, I've seen the car and a story about the owner every now and then in the mags, but may be someone with a better reference file can put their finger on it here for you.

I believe it's Harry Yeagy in Cincinnati.

And, it's not really a convertible. There is no top.

Had a chance to get up close with both the No. 9 and No.10 cars at Carlisle in 2006. These cars sound incredible!

saw all FIVE together in 2003 at the Amelia Island Conquors d'Elegance - got to speak to the "then" owners; past drivers; etc. - really a great treat! got to hear them all drive in and out - before and after the huge rains!

I went there also Rick. Did you stop and talk with Jim Hall? Bob

Robert,

had a long chat with Jim Hall, a real interesting character! - in fact got him and all the other drivers that were there to autograph a picture that Dick Gulstrand was handing out - there was an artist that was doing "numbered sets" of the FIVE GS's together - think I got #3 or something like that (100 only made) - also have all the driver's signatures on that

BOY, was that a wet couple of days!

Only five were built - the Penske car was #001, now owned by Harry Yeaggy; the other roadster (#002) is owned by Jim Jaeger. Coupe #003 (formerly owned by Tom Armstrong) now belongs to a hedge fund manager in California, Coupe #004 is owned by the Miles Collier collection in Florida, and Coupe #005 is owned by Bill Tower in Florida. Photo below is of all five Grand Sports at Amelia Island two years ago.

At least we have two of them here in Florida. Thanks for the pic. John. Real beauty and art.
