CHEVROLET CORVETTE

STING RAY

Was this model a portent - a sign of the dumbing-down to come? Taking a fine model from a few years previously, removing features and adding garish colour? In this case it's OK, but subsequent attempts with the Marcos for example, were not.

This one is a little playworn - but good enough.

I've got a rough one of these I've tried and failed to sell on eBay so it may get stripped for parts and those big alloy wheels and exposed exhausts could well end up on a Healy 100/4 or some such like... How about the wrecked Studie below? - perhaps there's a project there... The wheels are easy, side pipes could be made to fit, maybe the big air intakes too, colour? has to be wild and strong, bright red or black maybe?
