Thanks but I was hoping for something with regards to a C3. I'd like to frame it and then drool...

I have #967 of this set hanging on the wall in my office. They're very impressive when framed, but quality custom framing is not cheap!

I have a piece of artwork that is a dark grey, ~15" x 15" square with 10" diameter white circle in it. The circle is lined with the 16 Corvette emblems, up through the 40th anniversery, arranged much like numbers on a clock.

There are five Vettes embossed in gold within the circle running from 1953 through the 40th convertible ('53, '57, '63, '68, and '93).

The bottom is signed by Zora Duntov and Dave McClellan and this is #65 of 7,500 issued. I've never seen another like it and have no idea of its value.

Are those steering wheels with the Duntov stamping worth anything? What's the story. A friend of mine has one of those stamped wheels and is wondering about what he has.

Got mine on E-bay for $50. I would like one without the scratch in the leather at the top though. These were standard equipment on the Duntov turbo corvettes and were later sold aftermarket.

Got mine new at Pomona Swap Meet ~15 years ago at 1/2 price because it has a scratch on it.

To bad it's not red. I would definitely buy that. Anything for my '79 or something to hang on the wall.
