Default Mr. Rick Tavel, CF writer.

Mr. Tavel, in your nice article about the Gale Bank's "Sundowner" Corvette, why did you not mention in the article that it is a 1968 Corvette? 68's Have never gotten any respect, or recognition and I feel bad that this oversight does not help us dedicated 68 owners. Lou.

He called it a StingRay
