Funny that the 4 1986 copper corvettes made the list, but the 1 of 1 1977 Chartreuse didn't. Could be because it has never been seen again though.

Or the only surviving 1983.

Agree on that Chartreuse '77.
That one has popped up, over and over, in conversation here for the past 20 years but nobody seems to know what became of it.
Somebody once posted that it had been on a magazine cover (if I remember correctly) and they still had a copy somewhere, but I don't know if that ever materialized.
I think it would be a fun one to track down.

How about this one, this is picture of one they did not make, what do they call those, concept cars, developed sometime in the 70's? This had among other things that I forgot, gullwing doors. That would be sweet!

When it comes to visual impact it's tough to beat the look of that '67 L88 blue coupe with the black stinger. One gorgeous car!

...I'm probably wrong, but I thought it was Vette Vues that had the pic on their cover of one of their magazines.
