Extremely sharp pair / great pics. Have the '61 Vette - LOVE IT.

Gr8 pair. The headlights on the Vette look really odd, though.

Headlights
Perhaps the headlights look odd Al because 1961 was the first year the headlight rings were body color instead of chrome ?

That must be it...
I built a model of the '61 many years ago and always thought the headlights looked weird.

That's a 62 John. They were painted on the 62s as well.
