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,

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:
