Just being honest but without some numbers there is no way to tell unless someone has the same picture...

There's a guy here that owns the C2 Corvette previously owned by David Carradine (Kill Bill, Kung Fu) that he has a chain of paperwork to validate.

I don't know if it adds any real $$$ value, but it adds at least a cool factor, or a conversation topic.

Agreed ER, Any additional value would be dependent on how much of a fan the owner is, but it makes for a pretty cool conversation piece.

The guy in the picture looks like a cross between George Maharis ( Route 66 fame) and William Shatner.

Well, Clark Gable, John Lennon and Fred Astaire among others weren't race car drivers, but their cars sold for record prices.

How about the Janis Joplin '64 356 Porsche that sold for 1.76 million?

My ignore list got FUBAR'ed -- fixed..
I'd forgotten about how irritating constant boldface is...

Yes, Canadian from Montreal.
Maybe that's why he had the ski rack mounted on his split in the picture.

Well... if no one else is saying it I may as give it a go....

"Beam me up Scotty, I got a Corvette to drive" ha ha ha ...

I had no idea this was William Shatner....

Funny I searched for info on his old car and found nothing... anyone else have any luck? Maybe they could go back in time and find it for us or possibly the Romulans have it in captivity for future awesome adventures ...

And guys/gals.... Some people use larger fonts because they can't see or read them if they don't enlarge the size. I'm not saying this is the OP's reason just using some Spock logic.. lol... For me I put everything I post in word in larger fonts (again so I can see them, I'm old) and then paste it in here. God knows my spelling and grammar is horrible as well and I don't proof read as much as I should... So let's play nice... we're all here to have fun, interject and interact with each other for one basic cause.

Reading is fundamental regardless of the font size to me. Fonts have no place in my world, the meaning is the same regardless of the font...

IMHO (and don't crush me over my humble opinion, I like you all).
