Great pictures guys
Will have to post some of the Z with our 67.
Man I love those 67's and ol' muscle cars......
But as Jamie mentioned, they do not hold a candle to the new era of muscle.
Happy Holidays and New Year to all

Simply awesome Cars!

I hope to have my Z06 still in my garage 40 years from now, and a 67! That would represent 40 and 80 years of Corvette 427 pride.

By then, we should all be in flying cars.

Can you imagine GM and Corvette 40 years from now?
