62 WHEN's Candy Apple Red Corvette

62WHEN Heavy Vette     
While WHEN's Heavy Vette was not always candy apple red, it did get there eventually... and reportedly at a cost of about $5,000... more than the car cost when it was brand new.   Above and below are the two popular versions of WHEN's Corvette.  Above, WHEN promotional photo (courtesy Bob Mitchell) taken circa 1980.  Today the vehicle is once again white, serving as the promotional vehicle of KOKZ - Cool 105.7, an oldies formated station in Waterloo, Iowa.

After many coats of candy apple red paint the Heavy Vette began a whole new life.  Below, Cindy Thomason, WHEN's promotion director at the time, stands beside the station's dream machine prior to a "Party in the Plaza" event in downtown Syracuse.
