" . . . a late-1960s model cream-colored Corvette . . ."

It's not a 60's, its a 70's.

I've driven from Grand Haven to Muskegon, and doing it in 10 minutes, as the article says, is more than spectacular! That route includes a draw bridge and several very slow lights plus about 16 miles as the crow flies. This guy may have a real future in nascar or Indy.

I Could Be Wrong But......

I think it's 1977. If it is the color was called Corvette Tan.
