Re: POST OLD PICTURES of CORVETTES HERE - NOSTALGIA
family and i lived in morgantown wva from 67-78. grafton wva just a short hop south of motown. i don't recall seeing this c-1 in W Va during my stay there. morgantown was a hot bed of corvette activity during our time there. i purchased 5 vets( 3 c-1's and a pair of c-2's) during our stay in my favorite state. just about to start restoring a 65 FI roadster with 20K miles on the clock. it really doesn't need it but i'm running out of projects. its a glen green saddle leather with tele, K/O's and its original long block as well as Rochester. it had its original engine laying in a mud puddle in front of the car the day i got it. seller insisted i take the engine. glad i did now. i'm pretty confident it would get a star for its interior. previous original owner tapped the right front corner and the chevy garage put a 66 up right inner skirt and 1//3 top surround. i'd got a nos top surround and used appropriate inner skirt. i put a set of outside exhaust on it near 48 years ago which i plan on removing. in all the years i've owned it(since 1971), i've only put 300 miles on it . it cost me $650 in 1970 with the engine in the mud(it spun a rod bearing back in the day). mike
