A number of pics of Dick Moroso's '61 at different years and configurations. One interesting one is when it was black when Dick lent the car to Paul Vanderlay for a couple of years. Basically it was "here take the car, but return it to me when your finished" !

Wow - that is quite a collection. Makes you wonder how there are any C1 Corvettes around that weren't carved up at one time or another for the track. Thanks

The art work on many of those cars was spectacular. A lot of thought and creativity went into that. A lot of '56/57 cars, too. They always looked great in race form, more so than the later models.

Too bad so many restoweenies ruined those cars bringing them back to stock.

Old Drag Race Corvettes
I was pleasantly surprised to see my old drag race 57 Corvette in the video. I sold it many years ago to a guy named Tom Payton and now I have seen it a couple of times on "Pass Time" and here. Almost makes me want to get another.
