Pics that make you smile

How come I don't see some of the stuff shown on Pg. 2?...some of the posts by roadcam & dashmellow are blank ???.....does anyone else have this issue?



When the 1963 (sorry Dashmellow) Ray came out,
Zora Arkus-Duntov, Engineer, racer & the guy who made the vette into a real sports car, told the chiefs at GM/Chevy to get rid of the Split in the Split Window because he couldn't see out the darn thing when racing. Bill Mitchell the designer of the vette wanted it to stay...guess who won.

I remember as a car-love'n kid in the 60's, how everyone wanted a 1964-1967 over the '63 because of that change...the '63s went for cheap on the market...of course it's the opposite now. But the later models do bring other enhancements to the game like the 427, disk brakes, side-pipes & nicer interiors,etc....I have several times been asked if mine is a Split-Window by folks who have heard that name but don't know what it means.

Thanks for the correction extraoneya. It makes more sense now that I think about it and remember how old I would have been. We weren't even living in the same neighborhood by '67. Anyway, as a little kid I thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen.
 
Sorry, a little off topic. @kamkar1 thought you might enjoy this
 
This one goes out to our resident vette driver :D

There r several C-1s in the group I meet for coffee & beer. I was very surprised when I first rode in one...it feels like another make of car. You sit on top of the chassis, as opposed to sitting w/in it like the later years. It's solid-axle suspension imparts a very different riding experience then the IRS that mine has.

RoadCam my friend, respectfully, this is 'sposed to be a lighthearted "Pics that Make You Smile" thread, not this kind of stuff. Sorry, but this sort of stuff really spoils the mood in my view. How about posting this with all the rest of your "viral" videos? OK?

I thought it was amusing that he's completely unharmed, and continues taking photos like nothing happened. I guess we all have different ideas/reactions. The driver was ok too.

Amusing? Perhaps. But to my way of thinking a guy who nearly gets killed and keeps snapping photos doesn't "make me smile".
 
My friends dogs ( the one he have now and the one bedore that ) have the same problem, dont undestand "NO this is not your toy"

The current dog even attack 1:5 scale 30 ccm gasoline cars at speed, and it have managed to kill a couple of tires over time.

A typical owner fault, not the dog.
 
@ dashmellow Well they say every thing is big in TEXAS but by the size of them thar horse shoes I think things have been exaggerated a little..........If not I dread to think what size the horse flies are going to be....o_O Ipol
 
just fell over this one.

Only problem i can see is it should have been made a bit shorter, and have bigger tyres so it could go offroad ( on the sand )
 
these made me smile, all photos I took myself

Not sure what's worse, that your driver plays solitaire while driving, or the fact that the car comes with solitaire that you can play while driving
