I had four adults in my 74 coupe for a short trip. Me driving, wife on the e-brake console, mother-in-law in passenger's seat, sister-in-law sitting in her lap.

It was different.

It's from a 1977 Australian film called High Rolling. The actress is Judy Davis.
That car would have cost someone a lot of $$$ by the time you purchased it new or near new in the States then shipped it over here, paid the import duties then converted it to right hand drive. Fortunately the rules have changed my 74 Vette is still left hand drive.

Funny funny stuff.....

Million years ago I was just married 6 months , still owned the 79 black L82 maxed out 4spd it was my pride and joy. Glass tops ...whole deal

I didn't drive the vette to work that day...My wife insisted a use her Plymouth Horizon ...chit box ......I said ok....she was off that day . Said she might drive it to grocery store.....

I went to lunch with friends from office in their car.

We passed my wife going down the road opposite direction. She had my corvette out , loaded with like four other women , cramed in that car , I think one was curled up in the back luggage spot t tops off , Wild and crazy.....they never saw me....

I was not the happy camper when I got home.
