Nice for a Corvette collector but insane price.
From the article:
After it rolled off the assembly line, GM shipped it off to a specialty company that built attention-grabbing exhibits for commercial and industrial shows. Basically, the body was mounted on elevating rams that raised the exterior almost two feet off of the chassis, thus leaving the internal running gear fully exposed. Then the exterior of the engine, transmission, driveshaft and other mechanical bits were finished in bright red. Even the muffler’s exhaust chambers, section of the chassis, and the right front disc brake were exposed. After it was retired from the show circuit in 1965, this display Vette disappeared.
