Corvette Photos

[Roscobbc]

Interiors were one of the great things American manufacturers done well. Everything matched. If you had a blue interior everything was blue including the dash. Same with the reds, greens and so forth.Looked great when finished. The two tone combinations using white also looked great.
Some of the mid 70’s full size Cadillac and Lincoln’s interiors looked like bordello’s on wheels

50's (and 60's) Cadillac's IMHO were made (or lost) by the original purchasers interior options - OK, the exteriors were mosty fantastic irrespective of cabin trim......but some of the fabric choices were unbelievable

1972 in briar blue. Wow.

Those PO2 hub caps look good.

 

[James Vette]

@Nassau65 Yes for some reason those lowrider caps work very well.

 

[Nassau65]

If you happen to drive your corvette when it gets dark, these look pretty good.

Wow, they were certainly packed in at that Corvette meet. A little too close to each other for my liking.

Always like the 1967 Big Block hood with its Stinger coloured to match the cars interior. Looks great.

 

[James Vette]

@Nassau65 very true.

 

[Nassau65]

Yes, I’ve seen a few 67 style stinger hoods on the later C3 models over the years, they look good. Gives them a unique look.

Wanted to add photos that feature the car out in public.

I see the red Sting Ray convertible had picked up a parking ticket. Looks like somewhere in Europe.
The 64 coupe and lady looks rather nice. Looks like some sort of photo shoot.

Here’s a rather or should I say very nice 63 SWC parked up on a street in Holland.

 

[Nassau65]

And here’s a not very nice poor old 63 SWC. Just parked up or abandoned on possibly the owners property.
Probably broken not working just left to rot. Cheaper than getting it towed to the wrecking yard.
It’s got the old California six tail lights addition that was all the rage in the 60’s/ early 70’s
A highly prized find nowadays , but at one time just a junker.

It’s very sad when a “classic Car” is now seen in old photos as a abandoned piece of junk, but nobody knew they would ever be worth anything. We took a 1973 Ferrari 246GTS flares and chairs in a PX against a 1978 corvette that was virtually new at the time. The Ferrari was alive with rust even though it was only about 5 years old. We scrapped it.
I suppose it 500k now.

Maybe the parking ticket was fake so that a real parking warden wouldn't ticket him.

Both sadly now gone to pay for house.....
