Hi Jay,
Sorry for taking a bit to reply as I was away on Cape Cod. I saw only one old Vette on the rd and yes it was a Silver Split Window tearing around a corner as i approached! It went by in a flash.
I had your '63 #8,105 listed in my file but had it down as a Blue/Blue 4spd Coupe. I had a notation that it might be a 340 and NOM and that it was now FI?
I'll make the corrections.
Pretty rare Blue/Red coupe as you already know!
Thanks Jay!

As far as my Blue / Red car goes I was fortunate that the original 340 hp motor stayed with the car all of these years and it is now back reinstalled in the car. It has always had the original red interior in it and still does but the exterior has been painted white with a red stripe back in the 70's. It will be Daytona Blue again as soon as I can get it done. The # 8105 is my correct VIN for my car.
Once I get you the other VIN you will be able to update both cars.

Sorry RT but I only have the info for your old coupe and not any history.
Again, I only record the cars and not names etc.

Totals update?
Do you have an update of how many you have records of?
When I see Facebook posts from 1963 owners, I give them the link to this thread hoping they will contribute.

Thanks dooboy.
I had no information about your '63 #7,011.
So, your car is a 300 hp 4spd Saddle Tan Coupe?
What is the original color of your interior? Any other options like power windows or brakes etc.?
What is your Body number? I'll take a guess and say body #3,819.
