That is why since '72, there has been a '62 Corvette in my garage. I thought it was expensive back then, now I wouldn't want to have to buy it back if I did sell it. Those surviving me can worry about that. I still feel like I am 19 again driving it, just as I was when I bought the car. But, it doesn't matter what you like, as long as you like it. Just as the old joke says, "who you going to please with that thing!" the answer is "ME!"
Boy Dave:
Did your post bring back some memories. My wife and I went on our Honeymoon in our 1962 327/300hp Roman Red Corvette.
This was back in 1966. Always regretted selling that Vette. However I still have the same wife and a newer Corvette convertible to tool around in. It is now finally cool enough here to put the top down and it will probably stay down until late next Spring.
N.B: We have the longest continuois running weekly antique and classic car show here in Scottsdale. It's been held every Saturday night for many years at the Pavillions Shopping Center parking lot.
