2013 Chevrolet AstroVette Re-issue
In 1969 Chevrolet gave the 3 Apollo 12 astronauts a customized Corvette Stingray in river-side Gold with black 'Wings'. Each Astrovette had a unique red, white and blue emblem containing three letters...
The initials 'LMP' (Lunar Module Pilot) appear over the blue in the emblem on Alan Bean's Corvette. On the other two matching AstroVettes, Pete Conrad Jr. had 'CDR' (Commander) over white, and Dick Gordon Jr. had 'CMP' (Command Module Pilot) over red.
Thought i'd do a little tribute to the great car, nothing special but good enough. By the way, this AstroVette thing is actually true not just some story i made up!
