Default Ever feel like you are being followed?

I wonder how many people will try and pull me over between NC and Pa.

I stole this one from my dad. She is my favorite sibling. It has been in my family since the early 80s.

Every time I gas mine up, someone comes and talks to me about it ... very few know what year it is, or much else about them.

66. 75k miles.All numbers match. The only original part we don't have is the alternator. The paint is original but needs a repaint. No rust and the only body damage was when the corner of the roof was hit by a softball. It started right up after sitting for years.

Make it a red interior with the hubcap rims and it would be the very first Corvette I really recognized and lusted after.

When my Uncle, Aunt and cousins lived right off Broad St Souderton, PA , their next door neighbor had a '63 S/W red/red. I was about 5 or 6 and would tip toe to see over the fence and just drool looking at it.

What are those wheels, old ET's? I don't recall seeing center caps like that before.

327/350hp, 4spd, pb, no ps, sidepipes. The wheels are old torq thrusts. I believe the center caps were replaced in the 80s with newer ones from American Racing. The interior is white vinyl but in great shape. The car has always been garaged, but hasn't been driven since around 1988.
