Good Morning MCF's. Got up about an hr ago. But just layed in bed. Nice and peaceful. Can't even here the traffic. Kind of cloudy and 48 degree's. 454 is a nice number to have as a post record. Space You have to tape , set your VCR or what ever you have. For Sat or Sunday at Barrett- Jackson next weekend. Those Corvette's go for a lot of ca$h.. I'm not sure what they costs NEW!! But I do KNOW a 1967 Stingray 427 Tri power 4 spd leather interior two tone paint job was under $ 4,500.00 out the door. SO I'm thinking a 63 split window would have been around $ 3,500.00 out the door. Let me say this about those cars. in the summer without A/C you COOKED inside of them. No matter if you had the 2 windows down and the vents windows pointed towards you. And PLEASE don't pull open the vents under the dash. HOLY COW! The HEAT from that big Block Chevy. Would come inside the cockpit. . Ok More later Shower and coffee in that order. Back in a while.
