Yes he had a 1967 convert and earlier a 1957. The 1967 was associated with his album with the wandering whatevers:"Any Thing You Want." But I cannot find pics.

He had a 1969 Corvette coupe with the L71 427/435 and side exhaust. It was featured in Vette magazine a several years ago. The owner had actually got in touch with Roy and they chatted about the car....... :thumbs:
