Where can a Covette be certified a "survivor" besides at Bloomington?
I have a 1972 t-top. I'm supposed to be the third owner. According to a judge, it is all original.
Thanks
Joe

JB, The "only" place where you can get that "Survivor" Award is indeed Bloomington. Just had my Yellow '80 "Survivored" there this past June. Careful on saying "All original". This can get silly. Does it have the "original" battery? air filter? oil? antifreeze? air in the tires? You may be better off saying "mostly original", after all, the only "real" "original" Corvettes are those leaving Bowling Green!!! :yesnod:

Does that mean I can't call mine an "all original" after the first tank of gas is used up??? :lol:
