They have done many but this is still the one that is most vivid in my memory. Went to my grandparents to watch Bonanza with them because they had a color TV and during the show they were going to show the new Chevy lineup for 1963 - this was the car and this was the color.

I agree Frank. I'm glad I kept my silver blue metallic one.

I remember being glued to the TV screen for that show. I was ten years old. When that Corvette came on, I almost cried! It was the most beautiful car I had ever seen! Then, a little later, I saw the new Riviera. It was almost too much to handle.

I'll never forget when the new Mustang came out because the bus I rode to school with my buddy Mark Schmidt his dad worked at a Ford dealership and they made him Park his burgundy brand new Mustang out in the driveway every morning and it was like oh my gosh what a beautiful car.

Of course I always love the Corvette also I was born in 53 and at 10 years old I thought that was one of the most beautiful cars I've ever seen but when the Mustang came out a year later wow and yes I always love the Riviera and the first year Riviera 63 and then the 64 I like the best I love the Riviera with the tail lights above the bumper. I always thought the tail lights in the rear bumper on the 65 just lessened the beautiful look of the Riviera it's just a bit.

But then again I always love the 65 Impala tail lights being stuck out of the trunk like that God those are beautiful and then what they do in 66 they stuck them in the bumper blah that was ugly.
