Wow, it didn't sell for nearly that much last time did it?

[Chris Burns]

No. I was at an auction at the Amelia Island Concourse De Elegance in 2010 and this was one of the featured cars. The bidding stopped at $325k. I took a BUNCH of pics of it. Most people thought it was a 68 Vette.

I love how the Corvette was protected by GM. They were so careful to keep it as their premiere sports car killing any other program that threatened its status. Then of course they basically steal the banshee design and make it a corvette. No wonder DeLorean eventually had to get out of that place.

That sure is the spitting image of the late corvette stingray.
