Now that your pics show so much detail, you need to correct the firing order on those plug wires.

(PIC) When I called and talked with the owner, Roger Judski, about the car...

...for my review, he sent me several photos of the car. One of them had a copper C4 sitting in front of it that stole my heart. Also somewhat rare, one of 116, it was due to it's hard-to-apply copper metallic paint. Corvette ceased using that color and never used it again.

Only 94 were made in coupe form and it is even rarer still because it has light beige interior. It so reminded me of my first Corvette that I bought it and Roger shipped it to my house. I have since sold it to our own, Tom Ciryak.

Well you confused this old man with your headline 1 of 2.

Silly me, I thought you were referring to the number DM issued rather than the 1/1. I guess my model isn't as rare as I thought.

A fantastic model. I have both of the "Rare" Corvette models DM issued. I prefer the white one.
