Corvette Blogger has the best picture looking directly into side of Great 8 corvette I've found so far. His blog also includes more Corvettes at this years AutoRama. Ron Champe member here 65 got the lead in photo for blog.

Just click on pictures to enlarge them.

The '65 is very nice, many hours spent there for sure.
I also like the Buick, it's so different.
401 nailhead dry sump injected twin turbo, and looks almost stock, how cool is that!

Under the 2013 car show category, www.hotrodhotline.com has many, many pictures of most all cars in attendance at the Detroit Autorama including the black 65 Great 8 winner.
