One Owner Show Car: 1974 Chevrolet Corvette
There are many words we could use to describe this 1974 Chevrolet Corvette, and subtle isn’t one of them. It is a classic designed to draw attention, not blend into the background. The Corvette is a one-owner vehicle that… more»
Custom Coupe: 1968 Chevrolet Impala 307 V8
