In 1964 we went to the State Track Meet in Gainesville. The first night our coach took us to see “From Russian With Love”.

There was a line of college students around the block. It moved fairly quickly tho. While standing in line I noticed several Corvettes parked. I don’t think I had ever seen one before.

I think it is held in Tallahassee now.

I’m probably too accustomed to viewing C2 vettes through the years that were totally stock (maybe with optional rims from the factory, like my b-i-l’s 67 convertible), that those rims just don’t look right on that car. Too 21st century or something. The spoke symmetry just gives me the impression of chrome coated plastic. I’m sure that they are plenty strong, but they LOOK fragile. I realize that the spoke design is intentional, as though they are trying to give a slight impression of real wire wheels. That, and the extremely low profile tires look out of place for that machine.

Otherwise, the car is terrific.

Not real thrilled with the wheels. Otherwise, nice sled.
