Does that car merit being the Find of the Day? Seems to me the Hemmings folks had thousands of better candidates for Find of the Day.

Put some chandeliers on the front fenders and I'd drive it right onto the set of Escape from New York.

I remember them from back in the day when they were new. As the expression goes "some things get better with age" this is definitely not the case with this thing.

Don't know what makes me feel worse; looking at that monstrosity, or realizing they destroyed a brand new Collector's Edition to make it.

Can't imagine any Corvette enthusiast being seen in this. It is just wrong

You would have to be on crack to admit owning it, let alone be seen in it.

What has been seen cannot be unseen.
