Corvette owner card

[Joseph E.]

One of my posts from some time ago indicated I was trying to convince the original owner of my 1967 L79 roadster to part with the corvette owner card he had kept after he sold the car in 1969. I recently contacted him as a follow-up to a previous conversation and we got on the subject of a 1987 corvette he was thinking about buying after he saw it for sale at a local car show. Before this conversation ended, he asked me if I was still interested in the card and said it was mine if I wanted it. Needless to say, the card is now reunited with the car it belongs to! In my twenty plus years of looking at and buying corvettes, I have only come across one other car that included its corvette owner card from the original owner. How many other current owners have this card for their vehicle(s) and is it rare to find and reunite the card with the car? Thanks.

Re: Corvette owner card

I have the orignal owners card for my '57...which is kind of cool..since the car was built to be the first fuel injected factory racecar..and was sold as a new car after being retired from racing in 1958.

I still have the owner card and pin from a '65 I bought new, which was stolen in 1971 and found completely stripped a month later.
