1965 Corvette Sting Ray - Team-BHP

Steeroid · 4th May 2008, 15:54

Saw this stunning old beauty at the ICE Shop when I went to get the ICE on my Jag sorted out.

Beautifully maintained, the car is a rare classic. I wonder what it is doing in an ICE shop, and I've been promised that I can take more pics and hopefully get a ride in it as the owner is a regular customer and Shahid the friendly mallu chap who runs the setup said he will ask the chap.

Apologies for the picture quality - I had to use my HTC phonecam.

Nice find Steer. The Sting Ray looks awesome. Would love to see it in flesh someday.

Cant beat the Americans when it comes to automotive style! Awesome machine....my neighbour in Boston had a similar example and I spent many a sunday drooling over it.

Superb Steer!

Does anyone remember the red convertible of Mehmood? It was a similar model year, starred in Johnny Mera Naam (I think). Its now with a collector in Bombay.
