Warren,
It is good to see that you have such a fine taste in cars.It makes up (a little) for Turtle.

I have a '76 'Vette Scooter,original owner.Hard to beat the Classic lines,power & handling of the first year for the 'Vette Scooter.
It is all* original except for the wheels.

Running that 'Vette through all 4 gears to redline and then jumping on those hard hitting drum brakes brings on feelings unlike any other car I've ever driven.Corners can bring up those same feelings as well.

* After the plywood covering the small hole (1' x 1') in the driver's floorpan rotted out,I figured it was time to fix the 'Vette the way such a classic deserves.
I was lucky enough to find some vintage a/c duct work washed up on the beach..After using my bodyworking skills using a hammer and a 2x4,it fit.

I wonder why they only made 9,810 76 'Vette Scooters that year ???
