Description
Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada :August 12, 2007 : My 1960 Chevrolet Corvette in our backyard after a good polishing.
I've owned this car since I purchased it in 1983 and still own it.
This is a C1 Corvette aka First Generation Corvette (1953-1962).
The perfect form of escapism. Remove the roof, fire up the V8 and go for a spin.
It's like a trip back in time. In essence it is my own Time Machine.
Camera: Olympus E500 & Zukko 14-45 lens

The car of my dreams!
Everything about this photograph is perfect, I applaud your talents.

Beautiful vet!
Thats a stunning looking car , your back yard looks pretty impressive to , a superb photo
Cool car!
a classic vintage muscle car, beauty!!
Nice car.
Sweet ride!!!!
In 2020, it's more likely to be called a "muscle car" or a "pony car" rather than a "sports car." My own car had "Daytona pipes" and the next generation of this had "outsiders" while this year was never a car known for it's decibels. Happy to see you are still the willing owner ready for a show and shine.
That is a very nice car and a very nice capture of it.
Lucky you!!!!!
That is a beautiful car and a wonderful capture of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Daaaaaamn. That is a sweet ride. I recently used the 1961 Corvette in an illustration. That reminded me of just how damn sexy this car is. Congratulations on having it, and kuddos for taking such great care of it.
Wonderful framing for this beautiful machine. The C1's are aesthetically the best Corvette every built in my opinion.
Awesome
And a beautiful time machine it is! What a gorgeous car! You have maintained to perfection! Love this photo! Really shows it off superbly! Many fine kudos!!!
That car is impressive! BTW, I see the Chinese are cloning the 1958 Corvette.
omg, I'm in LOOOOOOOOVE!
Beautiful composition. The framing is slick. And the car... wow! That is one well cared for auto.
Question: should this have some sort of "Mature rating"? This is car porn at its most artistic.
(ok, it might just be lust.)
Now with the C-8 the Corvettes are finally rear engined fulfilling a goal of Zora as he made his presentation of the first "Stingray" with it's own chassis in the Union at U of M in the fall of 1962. Don't believe it? Look at the big side air inlets.
