I saw it in person at the Corvette Expo in October. For a body mod, I thought it looked nice in person - definitely a head turner. Overall quality wasn't bad either.

Don't think I'm gonna be placing an order anytime soon though.

I like it, if it was black and used a C6Z with a turbocharged LS7 engine as donor car.

Reminds me of that 53 body you can drop onto a C5. Cool idea, but when acutally produced, it just misses the mark. Maybe in 20 years it'll be seen as a modern Greenwood conversion.

A set of modern looking knockoffs would look better too.

It would take some getting used to. Maybe even a few drinks. Then she would look great.

I like it. Probably a large price tag just to build it. But I have no problem with different, at least in this case.
