Man, that red/white cove combo--my favorite vintage Vette look. Yours is really nice. And a perfect sunny weather FL car. GLWS.

It just doesn't get any better than that, palm trees and all (as I look at the snow piled in my yard/driveway....).

I am just curious. All 62 and older vettes are convertibles, correct? I mean, some have hardtops, but they all come off?
