Jim
I remember 2 things about the 92(?) NCRS National in Anaheim, meeting Zora and seeing this car. Rich was very patient and I am sure he answered a million questions that weekend. This car is a significant piece of GM history and ranks at the top of the list for a Corvette collector. If this car changes hands I hope the new owner shares it so the history can be passed on to a younger generation. By the way, I am several million short of buying this car can I borrow some money

Wow, pretty hard to beat that car for cool.

was this the one that was in the Flint area during the 70's owned by a 55-57 Chevy parts seller?

Are you thinking of the finned corvette that Richard Fortier owns. He lived near Flint and was the former owner of Paragon corvette parts? Ron...
