Vette(s): 1978 Silver Anniversary L82 4spd (M21) Red Leather. Pace Car is in the hands of a new caretaker.

Being one that has a hard time throwing stuff away, I came across this old car magazine in one of my many boxes of stuff. I love reading these old articles so though I would share it. Check out the value of a '75 compared to a C-2 back in 1980.

Shoot....you cain't even buy the friggin magazine for that price anymore!($1.50)

It is interesting, tho. I can remember all of the Corvettes back in the day that could have been bought for little of nothing. Now they're worth more than my house...an everything IN it!

I remember seeing a 308 Ferrari in an old Road & Track for sale at the unheard of price of $3995!!!
