Congrats on being able to enjoy the pleasure of having 59 years of ownership, not to mention the years of driving your Corvette. Had mine only 49 years this January and consider it a sister to yours.

Great picture of two icons. Congratulations on 59 years of continuous ownership. 
The real center piece of the photograph though is the guy on the poster.

Cool car and great history!
My '61 is having it's "birthday" this coming Monday the 18th. I'd bet that some of the guys who built yours also turned some wrenches on mine too.
