Hi all,

I live in the north east of England and imported my 59 last year. As you can imagine the car turns a lot of heads over here. The car is a California car that has had a full body off restoration. I feel so lucky and proud to own such a car.
i also have a couple of Harley's, an 06 Heritage and a 97 Heritage Springer

Thank you,

These are my bikes, although I don't ride them as much now because every available moment of spare time it's the Corvette that wins hands down.

Cool scooters, that Springer is really nice......I sold my tricked out Ultra Glide this past summer because I hardly ever rode it......I was always in the Grand Sport......thanks for sharing.....

Yes, that photo was taken the first weekend I got the car home and had a chance to wash it after it's long journey in a container

Welcome to the Forum HOG1450.

Your Corvette would turn heads here in Chapel Hill North Carolina.

I really like the Indian theme Springer, very nice. Is that the stock engine? The push rod tube covers and cylinder look non-stock to me for some reason.

Very nice Vette, enjoy the heck out of it.

I absolutely love this vintage Corvette, part of the rich history of the Only American Sports Car

Welcome aboard, you have one of the Corvettes a lot of us grew up with and the history behind it all, just AWESOME to say the least.

Indians Rule too. . . . .

Forgot to ask; what year is the Indian? Been kind of looking for one, could not justify a new one in my mind no more than I would ride it. Looked at a few, got my heart set on black but your white one looks pretty choice too

Hi Bill,

I assume you mean the Springer. It's actually a Harley. It's a 1997 and has only covered 5,000 miles.

And thanks for the nice comments about the car.

I see that now, does it have the Indian modified front fender couldn't really tell; but looked like it has the lighted Indian on it? You've got some pretty nice looking equipment in your stable I could spend hours and hours upon days wiping on this euuipment, good therepy. . . . . Just doesn't get much better than that.

The front fender is original, they come like that as standard, with the light fitted. I took the passenger seat off, as I prefer the single seat look but only takes seconds to refit.

Welcome to CAC from across the "pond". I have been to Bristol twice on business many years ago. Great city, nice people, beautiful country side. Awesome looking Vette.
