Six tail lights were very rare, but they do bring back to mind &quot;Dead Man's Curve&quot;, where &quot;all the Jag could see were my six tail lights&quot;...I think it was the Grand Sport option, or something like that. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
I think the Vette that Jan Berry wrecked to end his career had them.

----As far as I know there was only one dealership that offered six tailights as an actual option, &quot;Harry Mann Chevrolet&quot; in the greater LA area. Other LA area dealers may have done it as well when customers actually asked for the extra two lights. This modification happened at Harry Mann if you knew enough to ask and was done on sight in their body shop. Quite a few 63 to 67 Corvettes were molested in this manner all over the world. It wasnt a difficult modification. It wasnt the Grand Sport option as all 6 Grand Sports had two tailights, but its possible that Harry Mann called it that. Its very possible that Jan Berrys Corvette would have come from HM as that particular dealership sold a ton of mid-year Corvettes....Bill S
