Default Re: super car

I have the hard cover book about the Grand Sports and if you look at the book and all the variations of the car, you'd think they built 100 of them. The original style with no flares is beautiful. What a shame that they axed the program. GS #1 sat under a tree here in Austin for years after being damaged at a local track. The owner wanted $18,000 for it for years back when you could buy a well optioned new Corvette for $6,000. Finally sold to Jerome Shinkay in about 1973.
