One of my favourite places in Leeds to photograph - under the tunnel of the railway station on Neville street in Leeds city centre. It is great for B&W lighting and silhouettes.

Chevrolet C5 Corvette (1997-04) Engine 5666cc V8 LS1 339bhp
Registration Number V 53 UBT (Leeds)
CHEVROLET SET

The C5 was a major change from the previous generations of Corvette, designed from the outset as a sturdy Convertible. The car now had a hydroformed box frame, transmission was moved to the rear to form an integrated, rear mounted transaxle assembly, connected to the new LS1 engine via a torque tube.
In the inaugural model year (1997), only the fastback coupé (more like a hatchback coupé) was offered, with the convertible – the first to offer a trunk since 1962 – following later in August 1997 for MY 1998. In the summer of 1998, a third bodystyle, the hardtop (also referred to as the "fixed-roof coupé" or "FRC"), was added to the 1999 MY lineup.[This bodystyle, as its name suggests, featured a fixed top (no removable targa top panel as with the fastback coupé) with a roofline shape and trunk space similar to that of the convertible, as well as a distinctive notchback-style rear window.
The LS1 engine initially produced 345 hp, but that was increased slightly in 2001 to 350 hp. The 4L60-E automatic transmission carried on from previous models, but the manual was replaced by a Borg-Warner T-56 6-speed that is capable of propelling the C5 to a top speed of 175 mph.)

I attended the Barrett Jackson Spring 2025 Car Show at WestWorld in Scottsdale with my son.
This is a 1954 Chevrolet Corvette convertible with a Bubble Top. Looks like a vehicle for George Jetson of the futuristic cartoon show of the early 1960's

This 1954 Chevrolet Corvette custom convertible is No. 3,158 of 3,640 built for the model year and underwent an older extensive restoration with over 1,700 man-hours invested. Sitting on a custom modified frame, it is powered by 5.7-liter LS1 V8 engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. It has Dana 44 aluminum-polished full independent rear coilover suspension and is equipped with four-wheel disc brakes. This Corvette is finished in Pennant Blue Metallic with a bubble top and tan Haartz soft-top, and rides on knock-off wheels. The beige leather interior features air conditioning.

"Barrett-Jackson delivered many magical experiences for everyone who joined us in Scottsdale," said Steve Davis, president of Barrett-Jackson. "From the excitement of the auction block to the thrill rides, exhibits, STEM Fest and live music, there was truly something that everyone in the family could enjoy. We filled our docket with so much diversity that collectors from every walk of life found something they loved. We stay on top of the trends and consign the vehicles that people want, proving once again that the car collector hobby is thriving. Those trends include the growing popularity of Resto-Mods, SUVs and trucks, which are gaining momentum because they appeal to such a broad cross section of people. I’m especially proud of our support for important charities again this year. We not only raised millions of dollars but also critical awareness that will help make a positive impact on so many communities."

In 2025, Barrett-Jackson earned $198 million by selling 2013 car lots and $5.2 million from 957 pieces of automobilia. A further $6.2 million was raised for charity.
The first production 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 VIN001 achieved $3.7 million as a charity lot and the highest result at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2025 collector car auction in Arizona, USA. The most expensive regular lots were a 2023 Hennessey Venom F5 Roadster ($2,200,000) and a 2014 Pagani Huayra ($1,925,000). DJ Marshmello’s 2020 Ford GT Liquid Carbon Special Edition achieved a strong $1,780,000.
The top four results at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2025 collector car auction were all for modern supercars. The top result was for charity (see below) while the most expensive regular car in the sale was for the nearly new 2023 Hennessy Venom F5 Roadster. This F5 Roadster was the second of only 30 produced and was sold with only 681 miles on the clock.

The Saturn L series is a line of automobiles, sedans and station wagons, that were made by Saturn Corporation in Wilmington, Delaware.
Poor sales of the L-series cars caused GM to cancel the line for 2005. The first L-series car was built in January 1999, and the last one rolled off the Wilmington line on June 17, 2004, after a short run of 2005 models. About 406,300 L-series cars were built in this period.
