Waaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That gold 60 Corvette has got to be my old car and the only Vette I ever owned. Everything down to the missing grille, red lines on the front, the M/T's on 10" chrome reverse on the rear and that gold repaint and white soft top is identical to the one I bought in 1969 (actually traded a restored 64 442 HT even up that I resurrected from a total wreck with a new frame). Even the mufflers hanging down. Engine was sickand drinking oil, but original.It had a 3 speed in it. Was very low mileage. Sold it for the down payment on our first house soon afterwards. Had a friend that raced a small block Chev rail build the stock engine into a very hot 301. It was from somewhere around there, gotta be it. Anyone know anything else about this car? Oh yeah. More than doubled my money on that car and was tickled to death when I got $1600 for it. Only car we've owned that my wife got pulled over by a cop when she let it rip the night we got it. She got off with a warning, I'd have been in jail.

[b] I remember seeing this multi-colored metalflaked Nova run at West Hampton years before this shot
which was taken in the eighties

You can see the Nova's rear in the back of this shot

-
-
This Nova from the Bronx was built by Charlie & Freddie Bauer out of C&F Race Cars in Mt. Vernon -
Mike Ragusa was a BIG guy and this thing was still scary fast
C&F built some great cars and dragsters
