Duh, silly me - that's what I meant!
Silver anniversary to new body style, was what I *meant* to say... At the back end, I still think I kind-of got it right -- the new body wasn't all that early, and the "82" model year was extended *well* into calendar year 1983, IIRC -- but the front end was a total brain fart. No, of course 1953 plus 25 doesn't *quite* equal 1979...
(Let's pretend I got it mixed up because -79 was the first time I actually saw a Silver Anniversary Edition Corvette in the flesh, two-tone paint and all. In Zürich, that was, and I got several good looks at it -- because its driver seemed to be as confused by the one-way restrictions on some of that city's main thoroughfares as was my Dad. :-)

Yes Mr. Garrison, genetic engineering lets us correct God's horrible, horrible mistakes, like German people. - [link|http://maxpages.com/southpark2k/Episode_105|Mr. Hat]
