Wow, a 4 seater C2 would have been amazing!
I honestly wish they would have made the Corvette with an optional 4 seats, kind of like what they did with the 911 and the Panamera. That would have opened up an entire new market. |

That image posted Might be an artist impression or the mock up that was considered.The car has some proportional changes for two rear seats. At best it would have only accommodated kids under 10 years old. |

----The reason I said the 2nd time is that in 1965 I saw this very car in Harley Earl's driveway in Palm Beach Fl. I was driving down A1A in a rented 65 Mustang convert with my then girlfriend and Harley's house was one of the few on the water side of A1A. There in the circular drive two Corvettes sat. Along with this Vette was a pearl pink coupe that Harley had built for his wife. A rather large lawn guy made it painfully clear that I wasn't allowed on the property so I stood on the other side of the road and drewled for about ten minutes and then slunk away. ----I know that the Pink 63 was also found, but I have no idea where it is today..….Bill S |

----Thank you, Mark! You are very kind. It has been a hell of a ride......Bill S

The pink 63 with red interior and pink line tires was in the Special Collection years ago, Bill.

----Back then, Tim, both cars had Dayton wire wheels. JMO, but I think they looked better with them. I think I'm right that Bill Locke had something to do with the re-discovery of the pink car. I don't think the car got far away from Palm Beach, but I could be wrong...…..Bill S

----Also,,,note in Tenney's last video the steering wheel in Harley's Vette. That's a Nardi designed wheel produced especially for GM styling. I have one of very few on my 67. It was the forerunner of the Teak wheel option in 65 and 66. ----As well, that beautiful "Bill Mitchell" coupe ended up as a regular driver in Kentucky. Classic Motors bought it from that Kentucky owner thru an intermediary in very nice original condition and sold it after a few months. Can't remember who bought it from us anymore. I drove it home from work on occasion..….Bill S |

The Charles W. Morgan is the oldest fully functional and operating merchant ship in the world. It first set sail in 1841. It was a whaling ship which processed the whale oil on board (by fire!) and could hold 90,000 gallons of whale oil. It is currently moored at Mystic, CT and has made journeys to Boston and other New England cities. It is the last of a series of 2700 merchant ships |

No scrub pad? Use aluminum foil as a temporary replacement. Crumple a handful and scour to polish stainless steel pots (foil may damage nonstick pots). |

Soap scum can block pipes in dishwashers, causing the machines to not drain properly or even break down. Before you pay a plumber, pour Kool-Aid mix into the detergent dish and run a regular cycle with the machine empty. (Any color is generally fine, but if the thought of adding red powder to a white machine makes you shudder, stick to lighter shades.) The Kool-Aid’s citric acid removes soap scum. |

To loosen stubborn glue dried on scissors or a counter, cover it with WD-40. It can dissolve the adhesive components of even strong glue to make it easier to remove. See! Instead of Rock, Paper, Scissors . . . it's Zip Ties, Duct Tape, WD40! |

Fill the chamber of a drip coffeemaker with water. Drop in four Alka-Seltzer tablets. Once they dissolve, run a brew cycle to wash the machine’s tubes. Rinse the chamber two to three times, then run another brew cycle with plain water. The sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and citric acid in the effervescent heartburn aid make it a powerhouse cleaner. |

Conventional cleaners don’t dissolve stubborn soap buildup on shower doors. Spray the glass with cooking spray and leave for 30 minutes. The oil slides between the glass and the soap scum, making it easy to wash. Wipe off with soapy water (use a wet sponge with a drop of dishwashing liquid). |

Just cooked fish? Painted a room? Pour vinegar into a glass or bowl, and set it in the affected room for 30 minutes. Vinegar neutralizes odors |
