Great use of the same light units used for lighting Morris Minor rear number plates!

Out here in the colonies, my first-ever car 1953 Morris Minor. I was a cool dude, driving a 2-door, bucket-seats with 4-speed!!!
Like this one, only blue.

Wow, that has a fare gap at the top of the driver's door. Not liking the wheel trims, side pipes, thin white walls and luggage rack IMO, each to their own.

That car looks like it has a somewhat checkered past. The ride height is way too high. I see a number of C2 and C3 cars like this. These are sports cars, not SUVs.

Is This Nice....Or What...........? Yes, yes it certainly is.

This man is still messing around with drag racers in his late 80s. I guess you could call his 'blown', racing-fuelled, big-block '67 monster a "go-not-show".

From Boston, Massachusetts...




This is truly the definition of "get in, sit down, shut up, and hang on".

One of only 20 L88 Corvettes produced in 1967. The hammer dropped at $3,500,000.00 (plus $350,000.00 buyers fee) at Barrett-Jackson in 2014.













I trust you all bowed to "The King".
It would take approximately 60 seconds to shred those 7.75x15 bias ply tyres, if a person were so inclined.

All that money and you got...
- no radio
- no heater
- no defroster
- no power windows
- no power steering

But, oh my!

Now I remember why I didn't bid, no heater, Mrs G loves cosy toes!

Oh, did I mention no A/C either?

As rare as hen's teeth. The 'IT' engine suffix code, which decodes to the 1967 Corvette L88 427.

This sticker is at the rear of the right-side (passenger-side in North America) valve cover.

1960 with 283 c.i. 2x4bbl at 270hp under the hood.

Sweet '72...

 

[67HEAVEN]

The hardtop option on C2 and C3 Corvettes, like this '72, sure looks good...

 

[67HEAVEN]

Another '72. Final year for chrome bumpers on front and rear. Final year for removable backlite.

Nice L88/ZL1 fender flares and Hooker sidemount headers. Headers - what every solid-lifter, high-compression big-block needs.

I think there's enough rubber on this '63 now.

After tubbing the inside, rather than fabricating monster fenders, three things come to mind. 1) It gets down the 1/4 mile rather quickly. 2) The IRS is long gone, replaced by a straight axle. 3) Watch out for that first corner at high speed.
