Impossible to tell fron this photo, since there is only ONE visible difference (apart from a lot of technical stuff): The '59 has vertically pleated seats, whereas in a '60 they are horizontally pleated.

He resides in Las Vegas, he gave me a photo business card with his famous car featured on the card...the corvette appears in excellent show condition. He indicated to me that he will sell or auction the car this year. What do you suppose he will get for a car with the provinence of that Corvette?
