Default Favorite Corvette Memorabilia

What is your favorite piece of Corvette memorabilia?

Mine is this autographed photo of Harley Earl standing behind one of the Firebird concept cars. "To Aurthor Storz, Thanks for a great time. Harley Earl"

What do you have?

Don't think anybody will top that.



I have a '94 Chevy sales brochure signed by Zora, but my favorite Corvette thing is a picture of David Hill riding with me in my '65 BB vert.

Default Zora

Back in the Fall of 95, Corvette Funfest, I had Zora sign an original 53 owners manual, 1969 Black Dash Pad, Tri-power air cleaner lid and a side curtain bag. Still value them today.

When I was a kid growing up in Boston, I used to go to Fenway Park all the time to see the Red Sox. My favorite player was Tony Conigliaro. I remember waiting outside the Players' Entrance one night and actually touched Tony C's early bumper car (68-69?) and that memory stuck with me forever. It may have influenced my later passion for Corvettes, as I know at that time I had no interest in them.

Years ago I found this autographed photo (Chevy ad) of him at auction in one of the Sports memorabilia houses in Boston. Most people would have no interest, but I think it's way cool.
