What a beautiful car. Almost exactly what I'm looking for except that it is too nice. I'm looking for driver quality.

This is a beautiful car which I saw in person at Skip's, where one of the photos appears to be from.

I'm not buying, just want everyone to know how good this car is!

Thanks all. The car runs awesome. Its the best old Corvette I've ever owned. So nice I've owned it twice. I especially enjoy judges coming over during a meet to look at the car to see how St Louis really did things. The car has been used for originality classes. That's fun. Kids going to college so it's gotta go...$59k obo.

I saw this car several years ago as it made its way through NCRS judging. Very early car, lots of neat stuff going on. Good color combination on a very original car.

If it is in the same condition now as when I saw it, it's worth every penny.

Regards,

Stan Falenski

TTT. Price drop to $57k. 2016 NCRS National is in RI, car is in MA. New owner can have the privilege / pleasure of getting the 5th Bowtie Star at the National this year. I've had the car 15 years and it's been a tremendous experience. Now it's time for someone new to enjoy this special car. I have many additional detailed photos for anyone interested.

BTW, that's high praise coming from Rowdy Rat, as he's the 68-72 NCRS National Team Leader.
