What you described also happened to a lot of first gens along the way.

Things seem to cycle and the older cars that will be the most popular in 20 years might be the 3rd and 4th gens. You really never know.

HA! That is nice that you know the complete history of your car.

If you ever decide to sell it (not that you will), put a business card or something down one of the door panels so that some young person can find it and call you 35 years later and ask you a bunch of questions about it.

I am still putting together piece meal history and just spent 45 minutes asking more questions of to the Air Force guy who sold me the car.

Question 1) How did you have this car for 36 years and only put 4,000 miles on it?

I have 3 more pages of scattered notes everywhere.

Alfred spent the weekend looking for pictures. Man, I owe him big time.

He sent me this note in his email:

I had more than I thought.
01..taken in late '69 in Canoga Park,CA
02.. " "
03..1971 in San Francisco,CA
04..early 1969 at Scott AFB,CA
You can now see the wheels I had on it. Also this was before I changed the front springs which I did in 1970.

The fog lights are still hanging on the inside of the car. I thought it was kind of strange they were in there. I am wondering if they are an aftermarket add on or if they came from the factory that way.

I don't really like them and I was thinking of taking them off. Think I should leave them on?

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

if they are facory installed I would definately leave them on!
talk to the owner and ask if they were .
otherwise leave them off.
I know from the white book there was something mentioned about factory fog lights installed at the dealership.
