The perfect Corvette. Great shot of an American Classic. Mahalo for sharing.

I have ridden 113 several times on my motorcycle. It is barely wide enough for two bikes passing in opposite directions, in places. I hope the owner was fully insured!

That is a beautiful 1st gen Corvette, and a wonderful image!!! One of the nicest looking C1's I have ever seen. Would make for a great large print.
Is this your's Rob? If not, I'm sure the owner would love a print.

Love this style, but also the few years (1966?) that had no side scoop. I am not fond of the later busy body lines.

Great shot, Rob. That Corvette would be a 1960 or earlier and it's the car that made me a car buff. As for Rt. 113, the last time I was up there I saw some stunning foliage but no "Vettes.

Ohhh, that's nice! The image and the vet!

It looks like it could be up to a 1962 Corvette. 1963 and later they had those ugly Stingrays.

change the wheels to Original and then you will have something. Nice car anyway.

I still kick myself for not buying one used in 2001 as my 60th birthday present to myself. Instead, I bought a used BMW Z3, which I kept for 15 years, but I still salivate over the '61 and '62 'Vettes. Kid of like the girl you dated but didn't marry.

Yes, nice looking car.Nice. For a change a good looking American design.
And the Austin-Healey was a fairly good looking car for a British design. But from what I hear, don't rely too much on the electrical system.

1961 was the year they changed the design of the rear end. 1960 was the last year for the design in the photo.

I agree with everyone. "61 and "62 Vettes were the best looking ever! Great shot.
