I haven't found the #101 written anywhere yet but, here's what was under the tank.

The Corvette was purchased new by Mr. Robert G. Uhl. He owned Glen's Train Store in Akron, Ohio. He really loved this old girl and the plate makes sense to me now.

The car is very original. All of the paper tape for the body bushings, original shocks, and all of the stamps are correct.

Talk about a small world, I was in Glen's train shop many times over the years with one of my lifelong friends and co worker. He lives for lionel trains. Glen was a real character too. I will ask my friend when Glen's closed up shop. That's neat.

Tim,

Original paint, top, glass, interior, wheels, trim rings, center caps, engine, transmission, differential, carburetor, alternator, radiator, etc. Even the headlight washer pump. Thanks but Robert Uhl deserves all of the credit, Ed

The &quot;N14&quot; was an identifier to the assembly line workers that the car was to be equipped with side-mounted exhaust.
Great well-preserved '69!
Thanks for sharing the images!
