One of my favorite stripes on a vette. Takes me back to the glory days when Hinez was tearing them up at the 24 Hr's of Daytona & Sebring! Way cool.

I wanted a 71-72, but, the thought of modifying it, or putting too many miles on it just seemed "wrong".[to me]. to each is own.
I bought a 81 with the intent of re-doing the car my way and driving as many miles a possible.

Make it your car, mine doesn't even have stock body, let alone motor trans interior etc...
When someone tells me I would never do that if I had a car like that, i simply tell them to go get themselves a car like that and I'll support them in whatever avenue they take. Modding a vette is sort of like tatoos, people that have tatoos or modded vette's don't care if you don't have tats or if your vette isn't modded. However it seams to be quite the opposite with the "purists"-if you do something to your car that isn't factory it almost seems like a cardinal sin to some of them.

That's when you know you started a good thread.

I like a little customizing on my vettes. Makes them "different". The later C3 design lines are absolutely great alone, but like everything else...they CAN be improved on a bit. This one has the Ecklers "LT" front air dam and discontinued Ecklers "Daytona street bumper" glassed in. I think next...if I keep it a while more, I'm going to add GS stripes and hash marks.
