I was going through some of my old car magazines and scanned in this image. This is from an article where they drive a Corvette up the Alaska Highway.
... and my Hyundai Accent could probably take a stock one from the late 70's when they were putting out like 150hp.
And then there is the Monster Garage where they turned one of these Vettes into a Mud Bogger. Probably one of the better episodes of the show.
