Thanks. I know the car. The old time researchers that have been collecting data for decades only recognize one red/red 435 coupe of the description of the car in the
www.holygrailcorvettes.com collection.
There have been lots of rumors and claims over the years on cars never documented or that never materialized. Back in January 2010 a coupe appeared on eBay that was red/red leather no-radio, J56, bolt-ons, redlines, PS, PB, PW, full tint, 75326 miles, in Virginia, 00711. The gentleman selling the car was honest and forthright in his ad and on the phone, freely stating there was no paperwork, he had owned it since 1982, was certain the block had been decked and restamped before his ownership and thus he was selling it as having a replacement block. It sold for a reported $87,650. Another mouth-watering car but no way of knowing what it really is.
