    $87k in this day and age for a very vintage Corvette in fine condition doesn't seem ridiculous. Not at all ridiculous -- unfortunately. :|
    That said, at least aesthetically, not my fave Corvette by a long shot. That is a nice example, though.

    It's not my fave either, but the 1961 is my favorite year previous to my favorite era (1963-1972).

    I prefer the 4 headlights (1958 and later) to the 2 headlights that the 1957 and previous had.

    I prefer the cove with the backward scoop (1958 -1961). It was changed in 1962, and while still cool, not as cool as the ones before (in my opinion, of course).

    The 1960 and earlier had the same rear clip, which looks "old-fashioned" to me, compared to the 1961 - 1967 rear.

    So, the 1961 is the only year pre-1963 that "checks all of the boxes" for me. (I hate that cliche almost as much as "pull the trigger".)

    And I am sure none of this matters to anyone else. :p

    Close, but not quite. :)
    The (EDIT - check that) '61 always bothered me, with the new tail grafted rather unceremoniously onto the old -- everything else. Always struck me as odd. I am sure there's a backstory, and I am almost as sure I could find it in 0.04 seconds if I were to search.

    EDIT: The '62 overall looks like some of those Ferrari & Lambo models that... well... polite folks don't mention -- when they talk about... Ferraris and Lamborghinis. ;)

    ^^^ that's excellent.
    Reminds me of the Farkel & Berfel families on Laugh-In. There were some odd inter-familial resemblances goin' on. :#

    Whenever I see the word "Heathkit", I imagine Mike Tyson trying to sing the song "Wuthering Heights." (The Pat Benatar version because I don't acknowledge Kate Bush because she is a nutjob. :p )

    Heathkit, ith me, I'm Cathy
    I've come home, I'm tho cold
    Leth me in your windowth

    The best part of that is one can endlessly speculate what Mike is saying when he sings the word "Cathy".
