No matter what color your car is...a vette is a vette. just depends on your personal preference. aside from the off color paint (can barely see) car looks nice stock and i love the sidepipes which gives it some attitude.

Nice car ... diferent color to me ..... my tail and bodydon't quite match, I wonder if the glass and rubber don't take paint the same .....
p.s. .... my guess would be the chrome high rise mirrors
what's up with that?

That picture was at thanksgiving at my uncles house. Our shop isn't that big. We had to take 2 cars to get there though. 
Ours is 1000 square feet. Plus our garage at home is like 2500(can'twork on anythign hear its to clean) and finally a shop we share with my uncle(he has the lift) is another 1000 square feet. My dad has a compulsion about getting all the years or types that is made. He bought a diecast car once and then he ended having up like 100.(illtake pictures) Same with cars he now has 3 86-88 suburbans . I can tell he is kind of starting on corvettes.

There's a flex ingredient added when correctly painting urethane bumpers that will sometimes change the color a bit.

.Also to drive my dad has to ride with me.And what are you 12 you asked the forum members what we thought of your vette. IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE A TRUE CORVETTE YELLOW, AND THE UGLY BLACK WALL TIRES DO NOTHING FOR THE STOCK RALLYS. HAPPY
Now before you get all fired up let me say that I love pale yellow 427 corvettes w/a large black stripe down the hood & side pipes, way
& I like rally wheels very much, however I like white letter tires to go w/the rallys. Black walls like better w/the larger 17 & 18 inch wheels.
I have the factory mags wheels w/BF Goodridge 245/60 on the front & 255/60's on the rear.
If you didn't want to hear anything negitive about you ride you shouldn't have asked. That's why I don't put mine in shows.
