    A few years ago my brother and I went to an auction, he was looking for a C2. A '71 454/auto/convertible came across the blocks. Bidding was brisk and he threw up his hand, the bidding stopped. He had looked the car over but not a "I'm buying it" look. To change one of the plugs he had to remove one of the gills to get access. There's a lot of engine stuffed in the engine bay. Sold it to a guy from the United Kingdom, I can't imagine it not being an eye catcher there.

    Hello from Cypress Tx!
    Mysterious Woman
    Hair flowed like ribbon on the breeze,
    As she sat and watched the rolling seas,
    The sun shone down and lit her eyes,
    The wind was gentle as her sighs.
    Her face distant,
    Deep in thought,
    Of days gone by,
    Of friendships lost.
    Of happy times so long ago,
    It seemed so far,
    But even so,
    The feelings made her heart still glow,
    A gull cries,
    And spoils the thought,
    She stands and sighs,
    Then wanders off.
    B.N. Williams

    What a shame that the camera has such good vid quality but the microphone clips to hell every time it gets loud. And it's NOT the wind, because the over modulated clipping is only when she's flooring it, not when she's cruising. WTF is up with that? lol It's like an early 2000s digital camera mic or one of those cheap body cam mics
