Here is a '57 that was in an early '60s Rod & Custom. It may freak you out now but it was cool back then.

Here is one where you have to look for the Corvette. I'm digging on the '55 Bel Air in anniversary gold.

Another of the X-Sonic.

The car lot picture was fall of 1962. The story is that they had this '63 coupe on their lot before the dealers even had one. A stink was raised and GM reps visited this lot to investigate. I know it's not a C1 but there are plenty of them on this lot. Take a few minutes to look at all of the cars on this lot. :eek The Orange Crate 1932 ford show/drag car was recently restored and displayed at the GNRS this year.

The apr 67 shot of this whacked out show rod has an interesting project in the background.
