YUP! I agree. They would be close enough together to wash at the same time, once you got to "THE HOUSE"   On second thought, just take pictures.

If they did not want you to really be there, they would have had dogs or maybe an attack cat to protect the cars! 

Is there such a thing as an attack cat?   I know a dog would just P--- on the tires so an attack cat would be the way to go.

By the way a great picture.  It will do wonders for the prosecution.

We're the keys in the ignition Marshall?

Are they both Makos?

Its kinda funny. The one on the left says Mako Shark but looks more like a C2 (Stingray) but the right one says Manta Ray but looks more like a C3 (shark)!

Both Makos.  The Manta Ray says it was originally the Mako Shark II and was then re-worked and became the Manta Ray.  Either way, I was in Corvette Nerd heaven!

I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

That's cool, Marshall! I didn't know about the paint!

The story goes that they broke into the office to paint the mounted shark the same color as the car!

Mitchell kept insisting that they match the color of the original Mako(then known as the XP car) to the mounted Shark, and no matter what they tried, it couldn't be done. So they did take the Shark off the wall, and painted it to match some test panels they had. Then they showed the panels to Mitchell, and placed them up against the Shark, and he was satisfied that they had FINALLY done what he wanted. Mitchell didn't find out until waaaaay later what they had done.
The later Mako II, and the Manta Ray were both a darker blue...the Manta was almost black.

That's one way to get it done! Whatever works! (unless you get caught)
