Exactly. One to none.
Not that you are, but I wouldn't base their future market on historical patterns. I could be like Patrick and quote some made-up percentage, but I'm sure nearly all mid-year Corvette buyers, pre-SPF GS, are purists and would never cut up any model mid-year Vette to produce a GS replica. That's why you don't see more.

If SPF/GM can get the SPF GS accepted into vintage racing, then I see a much larger market for it. Right now, most Corvette owners are purists and wouldn't buy a replica.
