    Virgin Corvette?....Virgin Corvette??...Virgin Corvette???..???....????

    Roy,
    Did you pick your "55" up at the Factory before they finished painting it?

    I'll tell you Roy, "YOU HAVE ONE OF A KIND."

    I'm sure there are other years out there that are...
    "PURE AS THE DRIVEN SNOW."

    Mine sure isn't one of them. Mine once belonged to a
    "LITTLE OLD LADY", who only drove it on the M1 Tank Testing Grounds...
    In and out her garage when the door was down....In and out of ditches..
    and on any cobble-stone streets she could find.

    Roy,
    Your Vette is everybody's dream.
    I like your "55"...It's neat and very clean.

    Karl.

      Oh man , I've had other Corvettes like yours , I was just vary lucky finding this one, all we did was sand it and paint it.I've had many 53-55's but never one like this, a real some what poor fit and waves in the body that I kept to keep it original. And because it had copper color still every where I know the tint and color is dead on.
      Thanks

        Roy:

        You have probably seen but this one is fairly original... She now sits in a museum to be appreciated and enjoyed by many......

          Roy,
          Too bad you have never heard my line: "There are no Corvette virgins." Most often heard in the Bowtie judging area. You ought to come around once in a while to see what that means.

              OK wrong choice of words about my 55 body , how about a "no hit body" Is this politically correct?? I get confused in the new world order of today when speaking or writing .

                I would have to think that the whole line of C5's, C6's in the convention center are no hit bodies with original paint.

                      Hey Roy, I have no problem with the term virgin. I think we both know what it means.

                      I am a dinosaur, and always will be -- even if the cars I own are not. Well maybe the 1937 Cadillac is.
