I've never seen it before either. Wouldn't mind finding a larger, clearer copy.

Anybody notice anything unusual about the photograph (not the car)?

I see the 73 aluminum wheels. It looks like what you see at the Detroit auto show.Now we need someone who went to the show in 73.

Mike The tires are on round pegs.

How about the rear roof line extension just a slight amount over the back window glass. Could just be the appearance of the photo. Tom

Nope and nope. It's a technical detail of the photo, not the car.

It's a picture of a picture in a book or magazine.

Hey, many of you are eagle-eyed master and double master judges. The discrepancy should leap off the screen..............

The picture is backwards. The steering wheel is on the wrong side.

Bingo!

I first noted the 'lack' of brake master cylinder and presence of a funny looking blue thing in it's place. Blower motor.

The platform is cool. It has rollers to turn the tires.

This picture is from a day by day Corvette calendar I keep on my desk. There are many pictures reversed in it !

I have the same calendar and occasionally find technical discrepancies in either the cars or in the captions/titles. Makes it FUN!

The first I saw of it was when I turned the calendar for the weekend, 2 day picture. Says GM media archive at the bottom.
