I have a couple of Corvette Club events to go to later today - one this afternoon - a promo TV spot to publicize our upcoming annual Vettes at the Beach show & charity fundraiser, and one this evening - a weekly show & shine that a local restaurant (Bella Domani) puts on in its parking lot. I have been debating whether to take the C7 convertible or my '62. After reading this, I guess I'll take the '62. I just don't drive it enough - time to help remedy that. Good article.

I love my ‘61, perhaps more than the dozens of old cars who have gone before it.
i think I’ll go for a drive right now, thanks for posting!

So, which car was he driving? Was it a stock car or a restomod? There are pics of five different cars there.
The swiss watch interior car is an obvious restomod.
Powerful? Was it a resto with an LS, or what? it certainly wasn't a 283.
