Re: Wishfull thinking...
From the moment a black '63 SWC blew the doors off the Family Trukster one night...I was in love with Corvettes. If ever I had a chance to have one like it...I dunno... IT WOULD BE A TOUGH DECISION!

Re: Wishfull thinking...
I think the mid years are the pinnacle in Corvette exterior design. Our Z's may be the pinnacle in engineering but there is a lot more to the story with our cars in regards to what it took just to develope and create the car. I don't think that will ever be duplicated by a main stream American car company again (although the Ford GT comes close). Too many bean counters in control. I do love the mid years, tho.

Re: Wishfull thinking...
Hard to beat the styling of a midyear coupe. I used to have a 64 coupe.
 Loved it.

I agree with you and not sure I am ready to give up my C4 ZR-1 for a mid year, but am looking for the right time and deal to get one. I hate the thought that the amount of money I spent on mine I could have been driving one and would like it to be updated to Vette Rod with some modern hardware. I drool all the time over mid years, especially the 63 SWC........  Craig
