----The white big tank 67 as well as the red 63 belongs to Rich, the owner of "Long Island Corvettes". He has his whole collection of tankers going up for auction. Knowing him and his age (similar to mine) he may be tidying up his life a bit. Every one of his cars is a standout Corvette in every way. I almost had his 66 427/425 tanker bought about two years before he got it, but LOST the guys phone number......Duh!!! Still would love to have it!.......Bill S

On April Fool’s Day 1998, Burger King published a full-page advert in USA Today announcing the launch of a new product: the left-handed Whopper. It claimed the Whopper had been ‘rotated 180 degrees to ensure a better grip’ and sesame seeds on the bun has been re-positioned ‘favoring a left-handed eating technique’. It revealed the hoax the following day, after thousands had requested the burger in restaurants across the country.
