---------That 66 of Chips is an unbelievable Corvette!!! I have wanted that car since 1975. Just a year or two before Chip passed he sent the car to Kevin McKay to have the driveline fluffed up a bit and the job came out beautiful. Its maroon/saddle and is a true 450hp verified by the window sticker (I believe). I sold him the teak wheel thats on it today. The original paint has to be seen. Really wish I was in position to bid on it. I sort of thought his wife and son might keep this particular car as it posatively was one of Chips favorites........Bill S

I've heard about this car, but never seen it that I can remember. It will be interesting to see what it goes for.
It's an original high performance car with a real window sticker and great owner history. The fact that Chip owned the car for so long will increase the value quite a bit in my opinion. The good, legitimate cars always bring the money.

Bill... do you have a picture or a source/contact that has seen the window sticker. I would like to see the engine designation. This car was featured in many publications... I remember the tires were original and was the air inside them...

I've got some cans of that original air if anyone needs them.

------Its been a long long time but I think I have seen the window sticker. Its either that or Chip told me he had it. If its the latter you can take it to the bank!!! As far as info off of it I guess you would have to call Lance M. at Carlisle Productions and ask him about it..........Bill S
