Thanks! Its a 1961, and since it's a classic I do not have to deal with
emissions inspections. I was thinking of dropping a 289 in her, but with the way gas is going I'm keeping the 144. Going to get it painted back to the original Poppie Red and white. Also just got a set of original spinner hubcaps. It's great around town but tops out at 60 on the highway.... unless you draft on a motor home or semitruck. Joe |

COOL!
Maybe some knock-off wheels would look good. Would the 1966 Corvette knock-off fit? http://www.cars-on-line.com/19919.html My Dad had a white split-window coupe. "Joe" wrote Thanks!

14 " rims...Not sure I've never owned a chevy....Always Fords ,
Plymouths, and Dodges . The Knock offs I got came from a 62 Ford Falcon Econoline. A guy here at the marina has a silver split window vette. Don't you wish your dad kept it, and gave it to you! I wonder if Scotty's ever got his classic off the cinder blocks yet? Joe |

He never would have given it to me. He only parted with
it because he had a heart attack and wanted Air Conditioning. Originally he has a 63 split window with a four speed. He traded it in for a 64 with an automatic so my mother could drive it. It took her three weeks to notice it was a different car. Both were white. What happened to that thing in the middle of the window? I would love to find either car. I have the serial number for one of them around here somewhere. They gave owners a little plastic card with each sold listing the owners name and the serial number of the car. I have about 30 years of Corvette News magasine--all but the very first issue. I wonder what that is worth? "Joe" wrote A guy here at the marina has a silver split window vette.

Heck no, that's what makes it a real classic. Scotty |
