That $4700 Corvette would be just shy of $30,000 today. But then
consider how much more by way of amenities and safety the C-5 or C-6 has
over that '65.

Few years ago I was in a mall and they had a display of vintage Corvettes.
One had the original price list that was about $4200. I thought to myself,
"why didn't I have one back then as they were fairly cheap?" Then I did
some simple math and realized back they it was about a year's wages..
