State of America: 1972 Chevrolet Corvette
We continue our long 4th of July Weekend over here at Daily Turismo headquarters with another classic piece of Americana. What could possibly be more American than building something amazing, cool, radical, and then, letting it slowly rot into disrepair? The faded paint and crusty undercarriage is such a fabulous parallel to the USA road infrastructure, power generation infrastructure, NASA, or many other things which we needn’t get into here. Find this 1972 Chevrolet Corvette offered for $10,077 in Miami Beach, FL via ebay motors.
