Here it is next to an ND Miata. Fun fact: the Corvette wheelbase is only 1.5" or so off from the classic MGB. Small cars!

Yeah I saw one the other day, I put it on my DOTS post before. They are smaller than you think, they look long and it makes you believe they are bigger I guess.

Why build a V8 Miata when you can simply C3?

Corvettes are like that...vipers’s too... They look big in pictures but are actually quite tidy.

Another fun fact: That Corvette might have less horsepower than the Miata.

(assuming it’s not in factory-fresh condition, which was 165hp in a 1975 base model)

Absolutely no way in hell. It’s an 11.0:1 compression 350-hp stormer. The malaise cars have big rubber bumpers and are easy to spot.

Ahhh...sorry. Didn’t realize it was your car. Still a fun (sad!) fact for the mid-70s Vettes. C3 shape is still my favorite.

I think I’d rather have my legs cut off and then drag myself across the pavement with my hands
