Random Photo of the Month: 1953 Corvette Prom Car



This 1953 C1 Corvette was driven to the prom after being completely rebuilt by two 16-year-old boys and a 20-year-old mechanic.  The current owner bought the car for $300 in 1961 just one month before his 16th birthday.  The car has been in the family ever since.

This photo was taken this morning at the 2013 All Corvette Car Show in Lincoln, Nebraska sponsored by the Nebraska Corvette Association (NCA).  The Nebraska Corvette Association was founded in 1967.

C7 Corvette Stingray Video Clips: Road America Road Track


Here are three short video clips of the new C7 Corvette Stingray that I recorded at the Grand AM/ALMS race weekend at Road America last month.  The sounds of live racing can be heard on the clips as background noise.
 
The first and second clips were recorded at the Chevrolet booth near the tunnel at the north end of the Road America track.  The third clip was recorded at the Corvette Corral at turn 3.  Fans were given the opportunity to sit in the driver's seat of the C7 at the Corvette Corral in the third clip.
 
Enjoy!
