Having stored my car at Spurr Classics - he has a few very intersting cars.

Would be nice to see it “in the flesh” so to speak before it undoubtedly heads home to the land of its birth. And quite rightly so as that’s where it’s true value is.

For sure and a hell of a set up. The SWC was a shame though. The previous owner had all new front and rear glass and the installer ran masking tape around the openings to protect the paint during the glass installation that was then left on for a number of years. When it was finally pulled off it took a lot of paint with it

That was my thought process too even having seen it already. I think being so rare and iconic it should appeal to all Corvette owners not just owners of Corvettes of that era. The two daughters are hoping to bring the tank sticker as well as other important docs but it's going to be close call as they are on holiday and returning a day or two before the event

It’s probably only Corvette nuts that will really appreciate what it actually is. To most people it’s a C3 corvette with a big block in it. Same with my friends L88 ( when he had it) it was a C3 with a big engine and hood scoop.
