    One of the best designs of the corvette ever

    • @lukasgarage956
      @lukasgarage956 Рік тому

      My opinion of the design......its way too long, there is like 4 feet or more in front of the motor , the Vette should have been the size of a Porsche 911......but they sold / sell.

      If you just love this Corvette design this is not a bad example. Personally, I never liked the fit and finish problems, the poor ride quality and the overall feeling of driving a hot rod rather than a production car. If you want a Corvette to actually drive, for the same money you can get a 2004 LeMans commemorative vert with under 40k miles. Faster, handles better and a lot more comfortable.

    Another beauty. This style, 67-72 Mustangs Chevelles, and the Satellite 440 replica are probably the most unique and gorgeous of its era.

    C3s! And early model chrome bumper model years ‘68 - ‘73, my favorites! I think it’s great that you are getting more Vettes on the lot. They are truly American Hot Rods for sure! This lot is the home of American Steel! And the top American favorites are sitting here fox the taking at great prices. Thanks to you and your family Nick for rounding up some of Detroit’s finest along with all of the rest of America’s best. God bless my friend. ✝️🇺🇸🫡

    My favorite body style on the vetts. It would t take but a little bit of well placed effort to make her a gem of a ride. Vacuum issue or rebuild on quad and a centerforce clutch and mild tune and she would be a true high performance street car with a Ross country drivability. Guaranteed indeed!
