Interesting that the steering wheel is on the right, and the signs read correctly (image isn't flipped)- did Chevrolet make any RHD Corvettes???

EDIT: Just saw the post a few pages back about this most-likely being an Aussie pic

 

Do they even do this anymore? What's the current record?

 

HAS THERE EVER BEEN AN ARTICLE OR PICTURES OF ' DEAN JEFFRIE'S 46 MERCURY CONVERTIBLE ?

Local [3rd mile I think] circle track [Waterford Speed Bowl] used to have 100 ft. bracket drags on Friday nights on the main straight.. Timing lights and dial in. Open to anything, as best I can figure from what I saw. Chevlles, Camaros, early mustang with a blower, Lawn mowers, Harleys. Dirt bikes, ATVs. Free spectator car show and $10 pit pass/race. I don't know what's going on now.
