  1. Would you or someone else please list the corresponding speedometer with the serial numbers. There is a question for accuracy with one of the owners, who wishes to remain anonymous.

    Sure!.....Numbers 1001, 1002 and 1003 had 140 mph speedos. Numbers 1004 thru 1014 had 160 mph speedos. And number 1015 had a kilometer (metric) speedo.

  2. All great comments!....What I had as a major difference, to add to the above, is the fact that the Corvette had a lot more steel under all that fiberglass...For example, the large Avanti doors were completely made of fiberglass....while the same era Corvette door had the fiberglass applied over what was basically a steel skeleton. Recently I was the go-between on a '64 Corvette Roadster door shell....tiny little thing...but it felt like it weighed as much or more than a much larger Studebaker Avanti door shell weighs!
