It already has, most of the Bloomington Gold Benchmark and NCRS bowtie Corvettes from the 50/60s have been so heavily fluffed that I would hardly call them survivors. As someone once told me, they are restored to look old. There are exceptions but they are very few and far between.

On another note, the pictures that Steve posted of his children is absolutely priceless!

Always curious what happened to that car as I do not recall ever seeing it again after they took it to Bloomington that year. I think that was the year we had a bunch of cars in a big tent out in the showfield by the highway and a terrible storm came up and snapped several of the large wooden tent posts and miraculously none of the cars sustained any significant damage including that silver 435.
Sorry for the thread hi-jack but those were fun times and these discussions bring back great memories. |

old is new..
Interesting thread...people spend tons of money for plastic surgery to look young again...car folks spend the same money to make their ride look old.
So, if the owner looks younger than the car looks old...beware Great hobby...always a new wrinkle [sorry, we can fix that too] -wilma

"Always a new wrinkle"
Tee Hee Ryan PS: if my money tree blossoms I will be the second owner of a wide variety of survivor or semi-survivors :-) I would pay more for a survivor than a restored car.
