P-Dogg, I'm glad to see that in the middle of your Corvette buying frenzy that you have retained your sense of humor.

Ray (but really now, will the Ohio boys let you bring that car into your state if it's not sliver ?)

I've never seen copper on a midyear before, IMHO would be a great choice on a restomod.
