Tony, you would never fit in it, when my son was working at Hotrods Unlimited there were two cars that he had to get someone else to move as he could not get in them because of his height 6'3"...One was a 62 Vette and the other one was a 57 T-bird.

I have owned 3 Vettes and the wife said no to anymore unless it was a 58-67 as I would become that guy (Bald older guy in Vette).

Don't make this something it's not Brian. You and Gary can both read. I didn't say anyone that owns a Corvette is an asshole and I never even mentioned Camaros. So are some Camaro owners assholes, sure and so are some Chevelle owners.

I was just saying, that at least around here, some people that own older, classic Corvettes thing they're something special.
