(Pics) 1961 Chevrolet Mako Shark
The '61 Mako Shark Corvette dreamcar certainly was a sensational automobile with plenty of Chevy V-8 power and a great exterior design that hinted at the upcoming 1963 Sting Ray. This version was done really nicely by MotorMax some years back.

Very nice pictures, Mike!
I am a fan of this car as well, having both the MotorMax and the UT versions.

I got to take a quick ride around the GM Tech Center in the Mako in the Summers of '66 and '67 while attending the Fisher Body Craftsman's Guild convention. That roof is not insulated from the Summer sun! But what a ride.
