As a side note, I've been working with a fellow who is a lifelong friend of the man who designed the '63 Corvette. And the 240Z. Those are some landmark designs.

Had the Dino not had that v6 mid engine that was impossible to work on, I'd have bought one. Instead I got the Porsche 928. I never really liked the 928 design, but it has it's beauty.
