Just watched this show about an hour ago. It came out looking like a Z06 on steroids. They made it even more of a wide body and changed the color. They added a Borla Attack cat back as well. New interior components were also done. Nice car for a worthy cause

Besides the actual show this link contains the only photos of the completed Z06 I can find on the web. As the Foundation tours the car ahead of the May 14th raffle I'm sure more photos and articles about car will surface.

Greetings,

I have to admit, it made me cringe when they started cutting up a brand new C7 Z06. But in the end, it was worth it. It was 'tastefully' done....

No wonder they called the guy who did wide body mod "The Wide Body King". I marveled at his ability to cut those panels freehand.

Yeah some people have that talent. guy reminded me of a "not as refined" chip Foose the way he was just tearing that car up with the whizzer lol

I thought car came out beautiful I loved the interior.

I just with they airbrushed the logo on the back even if they do it over some Xpel in case new owner didn't want it. felt the small decal cheesed. it out. but nice job otherwise

I saw it and really liked the blue color. The Corvette could use some fun colors. I however think that wide body looks ridiculous. It's for a good cause though, and that's all that matters.

Lol, watching it now but already a few funny things

I was on a flight with Fat Joe and the Terror Squad from Arizona to NJ
The car dealership Fat Joe is at "Luxury Hause" i test drove an RS5 there about 2 months ago, what a shady freaking place with a bunch of super cars all with damage.

As seen in the episode, they have a blue 15 Z06 there, they wanted like $95k for it lol

Don't understand why the front tires have to stick out beyond the fenders.
