That's great, Larry, except my (and your) 74's just don't fit into the list.
Sure would like to have one that would fit tho.

Vette(s): 1978 25 anniversary blue on blue with T-tops.
Kinda dumb question but why so many '67's? I would think that a good condition 61 or an origional 53 would be in the tops more. Am I wrong? What was so special that makes the 67 so prized on that list.

For my money, which isn't much, the '67 is argueably the cleanest of all the Corvette designs. Most of the chrome trim has been removed rendering the design simple and elegant. A '62 follows the same design logic, again, in my humble opinion. My all-time favorite is a '57 with the dual four barrel set-up.
There is no substitute for low end torque!
The 67 is concidered the best year of the best series. These cars took off and alot of folks sold in the pricing vacuum. My 1st long term exposure to a Vette was in a 67. It honestly maybe the best car I have ever driven.
