OK, it's been a minute since I've posted any photos. I'm not ready to get back to this fully, but every so often for now.

I looked back at my last post, and I was covering the Corvette models in my collection. That post covered FM's '63 models. Here's a look at DMs.

1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Sport Coupe - issued in 1999 in Onyx Black

1963 Chevrolet Corvette Cpe 01
1963 Chevrolet Corvette Cpe 04
1963 Chevrolet Corvette Cpe 07
1963 Chevrolet Corvette Cpe 08

another issued was in convertible form, A Limited Edition #1645 of 5000 in Silver Blue

1963 Chevrolet Corvette SRC 01
1963 Chevrolet Corvette SRC 04
1963 Chevrolet Corvette SRC 06
1963 Chevrolet Corvette SRC 10

great John, love seeing them whenever you can.  I have this DM coupe and also FMs 63 silver coupe. If you put them side by side and look from the top down interestingly there's quite a bit of size difference?

Oh yeah; two of my favorite 63 models. Both Mint's made a bunch of the '63's.

Good to see ya back John. Come back as often as you possibly can and when it makes you feel good!

It's really nice to see your return John.  IMHO this was the best year for Corvette!
