Apollo Verona

8 Feb 2017, 5:24am
This Apollo Verona is new to me but built by the factory. However, a number were sold in kit form. Uses many GM components. Very well made and handles great.

Thanks Oxford 1360

Thanks Oxford. It is my daily driver. Actually drives like a modern car. Also, with a v8 it leaves everyone at stop lights. Disc front brakes help stop it. The suspension was race tuned by Herb Adams so it handles very well.

Recent car show with Apollo Verona and Morgan plus 8. Clearly some similarity.

Top up pictures. Apollo Verona.

Although the top is seldom up in Las Vegas, I think it looks decent.

Thanks Peterux

Thanks. It was expensive new. List price in 1983 was $48,500. Well built. Some of kits were very well done. Only built 44 at factory so it took me a while to find one. Been very happy with it.

Peterux is that a Royale?

Royale sabre my favorite replica. Never seen one in person but I love the look.

Hi Apollo,
