Sorry if this is a dupe post but I was just reading the 50th anniversary edition of C/D. There is a section that shows different Corvette collectors and there is this one guy with four vintage Corvettes with there noses buried in the ground :crazy: I realize that this is the USA and you have rights and should respect other peoples decisions but this one takes the cake.

I believe that photo in C and D is a product of Photoshop or some other software, but it is based on the "nose in the ground Cadillacs" that actually exist somewhere in Texas.
