Great photos John! As I'd mentioned in my today's "I'VE GOT MAIL" post, this one got away from me. It's beautiful. Great choice for GTO week.

I don't want to start any fistfights here so I'll pose this as a question: Now I do own this model, but it always seemed to be to be bowed in the middle with both fore and aft drooping a bit. Is it me or does anyone else agree?

I agree, it does seem to. Although the blue convertible doesn't look like it does.

I don't have that model, but yeah it does seem to have the slight distortion you mention. Did that ever come up in the reviews?
