This is certainly a beautiful example of the first year of the Sting Ray! The owner told me about the factory prep for air conditioning…and that it was deleted at the last moment. That is one of the many stories of the assembly line that could be told! The side pipes are a perfect accent for this car..although not available from the factory that year. It was interesting too that a soft top was never part of the equipment for this car…it came with the fiberglass hardtop
