I seem to remember that it had dual overhead cam shafts, and to this day I have no idea what a cam shaft is. For Christmas that year, Jack gave me a 14kt gold charm, a Corvette, of course. Over 40 years later, married with children and grandchildren, and living in Australia, I still have the charm bracelet and the golden Corvette. But I never see the real thing, a passing classic '60s 'Vette, that I don't think of that dashing young Jack, and my heart smiles.
