I'd love a Cortez Silver '69 L-46 convertible with A/C, PS, PB, and either red or gunmetal leather interior. Second choice would be a '70 model with the exact same specs.

Easy one for me...

1969 L-88 convertible... CanAm white/black... black soft top and vinyl covered hardtop.

Unfortunately, Chip Miller won't sell his 6,500 mile car, so I'm still looking. :)

Might be a long hunt on that one!

Me, ideal would be a 2 more, a 71 and 72 LT-1 coupe to complete the collection.

My dream stock NCRS type would be a '67 L88

My dream custom would be a '68 or '67 vert, with the body completly stock, factory side pipes, 600 HP, Overdrive, a great "meat locker" type A/C, Big fat tires on 17" ralley's, a top dollar stereo that is hidden behind a fascade of the stock radio, custom seats that look somewhat stock but are very comfortable, painted a nice factory color with 100 clear coats, C5 suspension, fuel injection, and all the creature comforts you would find in a C5.

That's all I want ;)

I don't think there's a year I don't like, so, if I wasn't looking for the "most valuable" Corvette, I'd go with a 1958. It's the year I was born and about the only good looking car made that year :yesnod:
