Default Favorite Picture of YOUR 'Vette

Especially in winter, when it seems we have nothing but time inside, I work through some plans, do some ordering of parts, and look at some photographs of either what I like in other people's corvettes -- like yours -- or what I'm proud to have been able to capture on my own cars.

I thought it might be entertaining to see what everyone thinks of as their best pictures of their corvette(s). I'm including shots of just the cars, though I've got some with my sons and wife that are a different kind of personally favorite picture.

My First Corvette (1975)

My Second Corvette (2001)

My Third/Current Corvette (1970)


Looks like I like mine by the water, pointing North... Anyhow, let's see what you got. Brighten up our dreary January.

I`m sorry guys, but to understand WHY I chose my "favorite", you`d need to see several other pictures first.
Some of my favorite shots involve my wife & kids helping me build our "retirement toy" over the last few years.
My ultimate favorite is the last one, was when I finally got to drive it, & parked it out front for my retirement party.

Okay, I take way too many photos of my car. Seems if I have my camera in my hand, I'm shooting either my car or my dog. I have too many to choose from, but kinda like this angle . . .

Rebuilt frame-off from a wrecked and abandoned mess by me before I knew anything about Corvettes. Not a showpiece, but a good-running car.

What are your wheel/tire specs? Those look similar to what I'm putting on my car, just anticipating fit! That's a great stance BTW.

Can't really just choose one favorite... so here's 4 of my 2007 Indy 500 Pace Car that I owned, but sold in Oct of 2018... really enjoyed this car. Now have a 2012 Grand Sport... will have to find a favorite picture of that one.

Something totally different, but we are supposed to post our favorites and this is one of my favorite photos I've taken.



And another... It's not the most revealing angle but I like how muscular it looks.

This is my '69 on the track at Belle Isle Michigan after the 2018 Grand Prix there. My son and I running the 4 laps up to 85mph.
I like this one the best, not only because it is a professional shot, but also because it makes it look like I'm leading the pack of newer Vette's!
