    Back in 1964 I had just gotten out of the Army and cashed in all those saving bonds the military required you to buy. I bought a Inca silver 1959 Corvette that had a 283 ci 270 hp, 2x4's carburetor, 4 speed. One of the first things I did was remove the Corvette wheel covers and put on the "in thing" spinner hubs caps. I bought the 1992 Vet in 1998 from a good friend who took great care in owning this car.

      Another '59 vette lover!! Gotta love the old glass w/class!
      Sweet ride, I feel your pain for gettin rid of her! Me too!

      Love the silver one. The newer ones just don't come close do they? Not that I know a single thing about these. I just love the look of the early one.
    18. Wendling Wendling, 11 years ago
      Wow! two great cars, lucky you,and you took good care of them.
    19. ttomtucker ttomtucker, 11 years ago
      Lisa-lighting, my first love was the 1959 Corvette. different time in my life when I owned that vette. I was 22 years old, single and the Army life was behind me.
      I use to cruise Hollywood Blvd or hang out at the A &W Root Beer Drive-Inn on Hawthorne Blvd in Hawthorne, CA. Many of the vette owner would meet up at A&W and head out to Hollywood together.
