Corvette Classics: 1953-1982

I couldn't resist a little sliding for this red Corvette Stingray that I found parked on the seafront in Portland, Victoria. It was a plain flat red, but a little sliding goodness brought out the true colours!
Happy Slider Sunday
Happy Sliders Sunday ... seemed appropriate for this classic car for some selective coloring. All done within Lightroom.
Corvette weekend down at Ocean City, Maryland.
The clean lines and distinctive design of the 1963- 67 Corvette Sting Ray will never become unfashionable or out of style. . .
This, too, is from the Goodguys Car Show of 2016, located at the Fairgrounds, Puyallup, Washington. I particularly like hot rods, but if I were to pick a favorite Corvette style, this one would rank right up there! I don't know the particulars (I should ask my husband! ha!), but if you are a car enthusiast, please feel free to leave it in the comments.
My husband just loves cars, and Corvettes in particular, so we enjoy going to car shows whenever we get the chance...and take lots n' lots of pictures! ha! I tell him he ought to be a photographer for a car magazine, but he hasn't done it yet! ha!
Hope you all enjoy!

When I got my film scans back from the lab, when I saw this one I was stoked how good it came out. I wasn't sure when I took this. But the color was popping. I really liked the abstract look of this photograph.
So yesterday I had to take my car to the local General Motors dealership at Castle Hill (Victoria Road) for its 40,000km service, and whilst waiting I wandered into the adjoining GMSV (General Motors Special Vehicles) dealership - and look what I discovered.
It's a silver-grey 3LT GMSV Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. It is, surprisingly, a normally aspirated motor (no turbo) and yet gets to 100km per hour in 2.9 seconds. It has an amazing power-to-weight ratio.
Yet, in saying all that, I think any Tesla electric vehicle will beat it down the street. Hence, I note, the first electric Stingray arrives in 2025.
Here it is. It is called the 'E-ray'. Due soon:

1959 Chevrolet GMC Corvette 5.7 litre, OSU 156, on display at the docks during Gloucester Goes Retro on 23 August 2025. The Corvette is a line of American two-door, two-seater sports cars manufactured and marketed by General Motors under the Chevrolet marque since 1953.
Gloucester Docks form the most inland port in the country. Elizabeth I granted Gloucester the status of customs port in 1580. The first customs house was at the Old Quay which stretches north from the lock at the North Quay. The house still stands and still wears the royal coat of arms.

Another of the "Greatest Generation". Ok, it's just my favorite American car design ever. What a beauty!
A Chevrolet Corvette at last years "Retro Classics" in Stuttgart. While I can't give closer specifications or details on the engine built in this specific car, it definitively is the 3rd Version of the car (C3). This design has been built between 1967 and 1982.
A lot of power from the smallblock V8 engine? Lightweight from the use of Fiberglass in the body?
The cool targa cabrio concept?
Corvettes check so many boxes :)
PS: Only americans can name a 5.3 liters motor a "small"-block :D
Pps: This is an interesting situation for me: I'm not quite sure what I should present next: More cars? Portraits? Pictures from Poland or Berlin? So many pictures so little time!
