These pics are supposedly of billboards Chevy is putting up around the Detroit area to bolster support for the brand. Real? I dunno, googling it finds most references say the same thing I just mentioned. So, take it for what it's worth, which is basically nothing. For an old gearhead, the pics are art, man!
Disclosure: I had a '79 L82 'Vette - black with black interior, so the front shot of the chrome bumper black shark below happens to really start my motor.
Mmm, mmm, mmm. Tasty.

Those are just plain cool
Excellent!
man, some of those sure bring back memories. I had a '67 Corvette coupe, and a '69 T-Roof at various points in my life. The '69 wound up being an SCCA B-Production car, while the '67 was stolen out of my driveway.
I have to admit the song of the Chevy smallblock runs rampant in my veins....
Oh, yeah! A 302 Z-28 at 7500 RPM is a delight to the ears!
The "They don't write songs about Volvos" billboard is real, or at least was, circa 2000, when the General put it up for that year's Woodward Dream Cruise. I suspect some of the others surfaced about the same time.
Which, of course, doesn't explain why they haven't been ubiquitous in the decade since.
Learned to drive on a '69 Chevelle...first "car" was a C150...I have a big soft spot.
Not an "old gearhead" but I consider these art as well! My Dad had the winged Chevy and I got to drive it a couple of times in high school. Loved that car!
Those are great. I never got the Vette I always wanted; had to settle for a Datsun 280Z.
hi. i wandered over here from northview diary.
thanks for posting this - my aunt sent me the email and told me to save the pictures to show my technology impaired father and i'd completely forgotten.
he still has the '66 gto that he bought new. gawds, i love that car.
