there is no color that was on a 63 corvette from the factory that was not beautiful. Of course I am a little biased.





i need some better photos.

As I said in another thread, I took it out yesterday for a spring spin. Had fun.

They are old keystones. They were on it when I got it in 1969. I have restored them. Thanks

I'm in heaven with all those Saddle Tan beauties. Always thought the paint looked gold in some lights, copper in others. Thanks, guys!

Here are a few poor quality photos of my 63. I'll try to find better ones later tonight.

Hi
That's my daughter next to the Christmas tree. She's also the one driving the 72 LT-1 Convertible in the drag race photo. My son is driving his 84 in the other pic. It was my birthday celebration. Hope to get the LT-1 restoration completed for the 60th anniversary of Corvette.

Both of them beat me that day. I tried to hard to beat him off the line and tires went up in smoke while he turned a 13.7 I think it was. I let her get ahead for the video and tried to late to pass her. I don't live that down.
