Has anyone ever seen one of these? It was in a brochure that came with my 61 thanks RDR

This version came in the edition of Corvette News that introduced the 1961 Corvette. There are two voices on it, Staley introducing Zora. I have a couple of them kicking around.

There was a second version that was sold through Chevy Dealers. It came in a blue jacket and the record looked like a typical 45 (rpm) record but it played at 33 and a 1/3. These are much more common.

This is what the dealer version looked like:

There is another version in brown jacket with burgundy label sold commercially. I got mine about '62 at the Rod & Custom show in Ft. Wayne, IN. Very similar if not exact to the CN version. Great sounds!

That looks like the paper thin version that of the Zora record that came in a paper sleeve and was inserted in Corvette News Volume 4 Number 3 when it was mailed by Chevrolet. Originals are quite rare.

Re: 1961 item

Don't know if this recording is common and is well know to a lot of members but..... by coincidence, someone posted a link to a You Tube recording of the "recording" - here is the link. It is narrated by Zora and features a 315 hp fuelie - and my guess is that it has 3:70 or better gears. Great sounds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOyH...elBipJBCRu7uqA
