Something about gazing over those sexy fenders while pointing the nose into a curvy road, like that.
Sweet stuff.

Of all the generations of Corvettes, I have had a few of them. The C3 is the best view looking out of the windshield down that long hood and over those fender bulges. I love it.

Summer + riding/ driving in a Vette = heaven!
I've had a bad case of the winter blues lately, and I can temporarily chase 'em away with a drive in the vette, but its just not the same with the tops in and its cold as hell out.
And besides that, everyone knows a vette runs better without tops!
Spring is right around the corner,

Yes it is! Going south towards the North Saskatchewan River.
Glad you guys like it. The "wishful thinking" pic is a familiar one.

Nice view out over that hood
Our snow has melted on Cape Cod. I had the 68 out yesterday for the 1st time in a while. It felt great. You guys further North have a ways to go yet.

That's a great picture, love that big block hood.
With the Corvettes away for the winter, my ride for the next couple of months is a little better in the snow:
