Outstanding gentlemen, great choices, always thought Vettes made great SS rides, keep 'em coming.

Let's not forget this one, for it's uniqueness, if nothing else:

Not sure of the names of all of these, but I sure enjoy taking their pictures. Added one from the oldie but goldie days, probably wasn't a SS but looks like it could have been, maybe. Blaney Drag Strip, 1970's.

Here is one more. Have a great one of Brandon Wilkinson, but can't find it among the 3000 or so pictures.

How about R&M Modified Corvette.

The last vette "Caution" was owned and raced by Steve Shumacher from Jacksonville, Florida. Once he sold this car he built a camaro super gas car and put the engine and trans from the vette in it. No electronics, a 275ci with 2-4's and a 5 speed nash and he did very very well with it. He is now redoing his camaro to run comp. Great picture!

I remember towing an empty trailer to Columbus to purchase a Corvette formerly owned by Phil Cocuzza. It was the one Wayne ....... owned. I dropped the deal when the independent suspension and upkeep was explained. I bought a body at about the time the solid rear was allowed and Wayne Crashed at Columbus taking his life. RIP.
