Stumbled upon this while researching Corvettes.

Digitalcorvettes.com has done a great job of documenting the Peter Max Corvettes located somewhere in Brooklyn, NY. Here are the links.

Here's a picture inside the new location in Brooklyn courtesy of digitalcorvette.com. The '53 has the top down in the back.

the vin number on the 55 is interesting. a 55 with a vin number beginning in E would be a 6 cylinder car. being so late in the run, 669 out of 700, i would not expect this. i was looking for the gold Vs in the pictures i have, but do not see any!

I definitely recall the VH1 promotion. A local affiliate in the Twin Cities was doing a TV spot on it and my '89 which was new at the time was shown as an example of the newest one the winner would get. The person from VH1 gave me several T-shirts and a sunshield for the windshield that promotes the giveaway and depicts 36 cars. I still have this stuff, hoping it would be worth something to somebody eventually...Too bad the cars have deteriorated so badly, although I don't believe most were exactly prime examples to begin with.
