Mostly 1963 pictures but some of the 2001 too.

I'll have more of the 1963 once the FI unit is restored and back on the car.

Re: Show us your Corvette

Bob, if my memory is correct , was the other car with a top like yours a custom from California that appeared in a Custom Corvettes, Rod & Custom or CC in the early-mid 60's?

Like the top---like the whole car!!!

Steve i am not aware of the car you are talking about. The top I have was done for a show car project in the Detroit area in 63 by Rohm & Hass the plastic company and which I am trying to locate the car now.

Dave you bet your sweet _ _ _ it does.I guess I should have ordered AC to help out. It works fine in the winter weather in Mi. (Pontiac) where I am from and cruised Woodward all the time and hung out at Ted's drive inn. Now I live in Fl. and it's a little on the warm side all the time.

Here's my 58. The 63 is buried in the shop in pieces and my 66 is at the painters so no pics yet.

Re: Show us your Corvette

Here is my 56 rat rod...

I have a little sign that I put on the dash when I park somewhere. It says, "No, I ain't gonna paint it, and no it ain't for sale".

I was going to take my wife for a ride one day. The conversation went something like this after she got in the car:

Wife: "Where is the carpet?"
Me: "Don't got no carpet."
She gives me the "whatever (wife) look".
Wife: What covers that hole in the floor?"
Me: "The transmission cover."
Wife: "OK, where is the transmission cover?"
Me: "Don't got no transmission cover."
She gives me the "you have to be kidding (wife) look".
She looks around the interior.
Wife: "Where are the seat belts?"
Me: "Don't got no seat belts."
She gives me the "are you an idiot (wife) look".
Wife: "Let me out of this death trap!"
She reaches for the inside door handle.
Wife: "Where is the door handle?"
Me: "Don't got no door handle."
She stood up and climbed over the door.

I guess I have some work to do before she goes for a ride. She also said she ain't gonna ride in it until it is all one color. I guess I'll spray some primer on it.

Re: Show us your Corvette

Roy,

Here is a pic of my 67 L71 that I bought in 1985. Black/white. Triple crown. I also have all owner history.

This is my first try at sending a pic. Hope it works.

Re: Show us your Corvette

Patrick H.;

We should start a club of exclusive to Vette owners who have hit a Deer.

I got me a 6 point young and healthy corn fed 215 lb buck. He came out from behind some small trees close to the side of a 2 lane road. I was only going about 35mph as I had just started out from a stop sign. He dropped his right shoulder and stopped an instant before I hit him with the left front. It was late October "rutting" season and it appeared he was running from 2 Does (go figure). At any rate, after 3 months and $3,500. later I had my car back (1992). The NOS body parts look ok, and the paint job is fair, but it's just not the same. I can still see an impression from his hoof in my hood - if you catch the light just right. But I want you to know; I didn't kill him! The Policeman's 12 ga. slug did that. His shoulder and leg were broke and he was flailing around in the middle of the road. The Policeman suggested I "throw him across the hood and take him home, cause your car was damaged anyway"! I said thanks but no thanks. I don't like bruised meat! Still feel bad about that.
