Todays curiosity. The vehicle just left of the vette? Google lens indicates its a "Hebmüller" A14, which is an English modified 1951 VW Beetle. But, there appears to be a fuel filler cap on the rear fender and VW bugs had rear engines and gas tanks in the front? Any other ideas?

Suicide door is a great clue. Here's the real answer - 1954 Merc 220A. Mercedes not Mercury!

Had a buddy in NS who had one of these VW's with the Rolls Royce kit right from the dealer.

Maybe that is the one in the back of the garbage truck?

According to Hemmings, you can buy one, pricing ranges between 1 or 2 new C8's.

From the age of that picture he's been working on it for more than 50 years!

Clearly my plan for posting pics then deleting them is not working so well. At least it has a 58 in the shot as well.

Kelly Corvette.

The 1961 Kelly Corvette Coupe is one significant Corvette 'factoid.'
All we know about the one-of-a-kind vehicle is that it was presented at the 1961 Paris Salon de l'Automobile by Vignale. It is built on a 1959 or '60 Corvette chassis.
This beauty is a unique piece of Corvette history.

I bet all those two guys are wondering is if they could fit golf clubs in the trunk... right?
