Taken at the Classic Car Festival held at the Pembrey Country Park, near Llanelli in West Wales over the weekend of the 26th-27th September 2009.
The two cars in the background are Wolseys. Converted this to Sepia to fit the age of the car!! Love the colour version too.
This '64 Corvette came in for a light cosmetic restoration. It was restored about 20 years ago and needed some freshening up the paint had started to crack and there were some dints and ding around the car that needed to be fixed. We refinished the body in the original Riverside Red with Valspar De Beer base clear.

Silverton 34 Convertible in Clearwater on a sunny day with only a few scattered clouds. The sky was beautiful without the enhancements; however, the water was darker - I edited the water for a website but I like the way the lightness makes the water look shallower. I almost feel like this could be somewhere closer to the Carribean.
The Porsche 968 is a sports car manufactured by German automobile manufacturer Porsche AG from 1991 until 1995. It was the final evolution of a series of water-cooled front-engine rear wheel drive models that began almost 20 years earlier with the introduction of the 924. It was intended to take over the entry-level position in the company lineup from the 944, which much of the vehicle was derived from. The 968 was Porsche's last new front-engined vehicle until the introduction of the Porsche Cayenne in 2003.
Like its predecessor, the 968 was offered in coupé and convertible bodystyles. The 968 was powered by an updated version of the 944's straight-four engine, now displacing 3.0 L with a 104 mm bore and an 88 mm stroke and rated at 240 PS (177 kW; 237 hp) at 6,200 rpm and 305 N⋅m (225 lb⋅ft) of torque at 4,100 rpm. Modifications to the engine include a higher 11.0:1 compression ratio, lighter crankshaft, crankcase and pistons along with revised intake valves and intake manifold.
Much of the 968's chassis was carried over from the 944 S2, which in itself shared many components with the 944 Turbo (internally numbered 951) due to lack of development funds at the time. Borrowed components include the Brembo-sourced four-piston brake calipers on all four wheels with ventilated brake rotors, ABS, aluminium semi-trailing arms and aluminum front A-arms, used in a Macpherson strut arrangement. The steel unibody structure was also very similar to that of the previous models. Porsche maintained that 80% of the car was new.
