The details being posted here are really interesting. And I thought only car guys were so interested in odd builds.

Well, for the price you'd pay for that split window 63 Vette with all the original chalk marks on the frame and the exactly correct screws with overspray and without - you could probably buy several hundred Vito saxophones.

And let's not talk about that time I could have bought an all-original E type for $7500, and didn't.

The one exception to the low price might be the alto that Johnny Hodges played…

Looks like that was model 35.
