Here is the pic from the article....
Damn shame. At least no one was hurt.
P.S. That does NOT look like Jewel Blue to me.. not like any 61 color.

I don't understand how that car got banged in the front RH quarter then again in the rear RH quarter with no damage in between. It must have gotten slapped and then spun into something else...

Not necessarily. "Back in the old days" stuff like that happened all the time. The local Corvette magician would spend a week or two and turn out beautiful work good as new. Of course that guy is probably pushing 80, and is long since out of the business.....so you might be right after all.

I'm confused - are you saying the '63 is yours?

Ha! You can have some fun with messages getting criss-crossed in cyberspace. I'm off to batten down the hatches for Hurricane Matthew the rest of the morning...
When the forum slows down avatars just suck more bandwidth I quit posting mine and turned off viewing others - even Kurmudgeon's...
I also turned off viewing "signatures"; why have the same electrons sent time after time for no reason

Here's the logo that was found on the crusty old Z06.....totally appropriate, and FTF will probably keep it in place on the car...
