How many of you used these “Anodized aluminum tumblers” back in the day.

These were great for your Kool-Aid back then, or a refreshing Gin and Tonic today.

I bought this Original set of Bascal tumblers years ago to use when I showed my Schwinn Stingrays.

They both have those brilliant radiant colors.

My grandmother had a set. Drank a ton of homemade lemonade in them. Thanks for the walk down Memory Lane!

Yes Bill,

That caught my eye, the ‘66 hood emblem doesn’t match up with the FI emblem.

Otherwise that maroon interior is gorgeous!

K

Common site you’ll notice on some Factory Original paint cars.

The front clip is a shade different in color than the doors back.

My cousin, more like a brother actually, ordered a maroon/maroon '65 coupe, 300/M20/3:08. Today it is 100% original paint and interior with a chassis restoration about 15 years ago. Only Corvette ever sold by that small town dealer. He has the w/s and invoice and drives it four or five times a year.

This Corvette had a huge influence on me, he let me drive it when I was age 14, I remember the odometer showing 416 miles.
