I liked the shapely style of the '69 through the '70s.
That new one is ugly as shit.

I always wanted a tubbed 59 with a Big block topped with an old fuel injection system converted to EFI.

Except for that ugly Jimmy sticking out of that hole in the hood.
I always thought the pre '58 Corvettes were the prettiest.

I really like these 1968 427 rods. Pictures don't do them justice at all.

Had one, a 427/400 coupe in dark metallic green, black leather interior and factory side pipes.
Very cool looking car and pretty fast but, coming from European sports cars, the handling left me pretty unimpressed. I sold it and bought a '70 Lotus Elan S4.
Not mine but just like them.

Looking at that Lotus brought back memories of a buddy I had in the 80's who lived and breathed the Triumph GT6 & owned several.
They were fun little cars.

That's not a '68. The '68 was the same body as the '69 but without the matte silver trim inside the "gills". Your picture is of a '67 (if it has, as I believe, 4 gill openings. If it's only 3, then it's a '65 or '66).
