Thanks! That’s one of my favorite pics.

I own a construction company and our office is in a five story bank building and they have us change out the flags a few times a year when they get worn. Every now and then they don’t request the old flags.

I love that it’s a little tattered.

Your C1 is a real gem, what color is the blue paint?

The ‘58 twin turbo is not mine anymore.... Sold it at Barrett-Jackson in January, it was amazing, the color is a 2011 Corvette color “Supersonic Blue”

Beautiful car and color, But as you already know, paint takes on a new life with a new body type or style. Super Sonic Blue might not look good on a C2 Coupe, looks beautiful on a C1 Corvette.
I am still looking for a pic on Super Sonic Blue on a C2 Coupe. Maybe it has not been done yet??? Thanks though

It would look like an updated Lynndale Blue I think, one of my favorite C2 colors.
