Default Has this place become the NCRS Forum?

This is about the 4th thread I've seen tonight going hard on cars that aren't stock. What is going on here?

I don't like the headlight setup. I think most here agree. But I do like the smoother look to the wide rear than some of the Can Am kits.

I think the front is messed up because it looks like someone merged the Mako Shark front with the Can Am kit. That explains the extreme front fenders in height and the headlights.

But uglier than Corvette Summer? You have to be kidding! That car kick started Corvette restoration in a way no one before or since could have. I bet NCRS was a financial backer. The Corvette customs in Hot Rod Magazine nearly ceased after that car came out.

I think pics of that same car (or one with a similar front end) made the rounds here a few months ago. My question then, as now, is how do you fully open the hood? It looks like you'd have to put the front wheels up on ramps.

It's not my kind of car but I have seen a lot worse as far as custom Corvettes go.

I actually like the flaired cars and wide bodys if they are done right.This one looks to be mixed with a maco!?(Tall fronts and Head lights recessed like that!)It is different.That's all.Like most it has things that I like and some I don't.
