Many of you may already know of this, but I just discovered it. Some interesting stuff.

Happy Holidays.

Best of the season to you Alan. And thanks for being the wealth of knowledge and gentleman you are.

PS: I thought it was interesting the Scandinavian prince picked a 'Vette over any European custom order he could afford. Which is to say - all of them.

Until I can become 'Vette-Expert' enough to give valid advice, (likely in the next millenium), it's the least I can do.

As some old wise guy might've said: "If you have to procrastinate, at least have some nice eye candy to look at."

I would imagine if you were looking for the classiest production exotica available in the mid-50s, the Corvette would certainly qualify. The lines killed just about anything at the time. I love Healeys and Jag 140s but - really? Look at that sexy cove and enticing curve of the 'Vette's hood. And the proportions were dead on the mark. That Prince had good taste.
