Nice. The 62 has always been one of my favorites.

Great capture. Roman Red is the color. Had one with original fuelie. Should have kept it. Thanks for the memory.
Go-fast car with drum brakes - not fun to stop. I’d move up to 1963 but those get real pricey.
If you are suggesting going to a 63 to get disk brakes they still had drum brakes. Disk brakes came out on the Corvette in 65.
When I think of the old Corvettes and muscle cars and then I think...electric cars are starting to take hold in this country.
Very good, KT, one of my favorite Vettes, along with the 67'.
I was lucky enough to own one. Paid $4800 and thought I paid too much!

That's what most people say. When you buy one, the novelty wears off pretty fast, especially if you bought a used one back in the day. My brother bought a used one back in the 1960's, he had it about a year before he sold it.
Great shot of a beautiful antique vehicle of 50+ years. Mahalo for sharing.
