I found this picture on a Ferrari forum I frequent and thought it looked so cool I had to share it. It was taken at one of those Sunday morning parking lot gatherings that seem to happen all over California. This one is heavily attended by Ferraris but a lot of other cool stuff shows up too. Click on pic to enlarge.

See post #11 for picture.

There were some nice Italian cars in the pictures [/url]but this '57 Corvette looked the coolest to me.

Why do I like this one so much? It has the right look. It has been lowered front and rear with a mild rake. The tires are the right size and they fit the wheel openings perfectly. Also it has the right wheels and demostrates that there is really very little you can do to improve on a '57 Corvette.

Still no go Tom. Clicking on any of the photo links takes the viewer to a login page. Guess they don't wanna share.

With all these Corvette people knockin' on the door, maybe they got their Ferraris all up in a knot.

Beats me. It works just fine from here. They must have it set up so only members can see pics. Sorry.

Can you see this?

If you want to show us a sign-in page, yes. If it was a picture, nope.

Eureka!

Looks good, I like it... One of our members has those rims (or similar) on a Midyear and they look AWESOME.

I crossed paths with this '64 on a recent cruise with Corvettes Anonymous in Florida. It had to be one of the sweetest midyear coupes that I've seen. Course....I AM kinda partial to blue............
