Basement, the last several. Marble's nice.

 

I'm no shrink, but it sounds like Chuck may have unfortunately been fighting bipolar disorder. I would expect others were also having "problems" with Chuck on other levels. At least you didn't get the axe, which I would call a win!

 

That looks like every other supercar. Maybe make it more CORVETTE, and it would be good.

Although I like it better than the current C8 IMO.

 

Tu-Tone looks good and the rear end is a BIG improvement.

 

Oh and one other thing, the Corvette will go EV never in our lifetime. The GM EV loving CEO needs to go.

 

What's with the "invisible" conference table top in this meeting room photo?

Not good news. What I consider to be the best designer of his generation, and it was an amazing time for design. I hope he makes it, but not sounding good.

I just talked with his son. Giorgetto is fine and not injured.

The 1952 Hughes Torpedo is sadly only a myth, now given legs by the advent of AI.

A lot of you are aware of my fascination with the Art Deco cars of the late 1930s lapping into the 1950s and finally ending with the Tucker. This past week, I came across a story about a prototype car supposed built by renowned aviation pioneer Howard Hughes. Unfortunately, there does not appear to be a shred of evidence that the car ever existed in real steel or even as a prototype or a work in progress. I got fooled!

Enjoy your weekend and these delightful AI created digits!

NICELY played!

 

"Gilles Vidal has been appointed Head of Design for Stellantis European Brands, replacing another French man - Jean-Pierre Ploue. He brings with him a strong track record from Peugeot - where he oversaw the design of three “Car of the Year” winners (308, 3008, and 208) - and more recently from Renault, where his latest creation, the new R5, was not only praised (again) by the COTY jury but, more importantly, embraced by the public."

AI- on UAW lunch break...

 

FWIW, don't see ANY Corvette DNA...

 

I appreciate the shark fin fenders but otherwise boring.

 

If Gator had kids ...? (learned about the "Bunkie beak"!)
