Lookie who I parked next to yesterday at my office..... one of my all time favorite cars! A 57 Corvette.

more pics of the vette:

its really something special to see. Sorry about the pic quality- but I had a small digi cam with a small flash and terrible lighting in the garage. The guy who owns the car is a doctor and he was too busy to take the cars out for a sunlight picture.

Wow, what a beauty! I love the C1 corvettes, especially '57 till '62. They are even better looking in person IMHO. Is that all original? Many have been modified with larger engines. I saw the same color scheme on a '58 Monday. Notmy favorite but still a looker. It is hard to beat the Honduras marroon with white coves IMHO. Thanks for sharing.

Your subject heading says it best.

I think its all original spec stuff. note how wide the tires are (or lack of width-- those tires are now narrower than motorcycle tires!)
