Only driven on Sunday's!!
Has 169,912 miles on it. I think the owner should have found a church in his/her own state.

I would venture a guess this is a real piece of work.

Hey Kara,
Did you have you red vette for sale at the Corvettes at Houston show? I thought I saw it there for sale.

Non-stock hood. Crossed flags instead of Stingray script on fender.

My guess is that it is really a '78 or '79.
