Someone else posted pics of this car yesterday I think.

I would imagine the creator was killed by riot before getting it finished. I hope that's how it went anyway.

I usually like the custom work, but this one might not even be worth the cost of the side pipes...

Hey pb - I just noticed you're in Avon Lake. I almost bought a house there when I was living in OH about 4 years ago. Moved there for work, lived at Crossings Village in Westlake - moved out just about the time they were breaking ground on the mall.Avon Lake seemed like a great place to live, probably much nicer now.

I'm a few miles west of that off of Lake Rd. It is a nice area. crime index of 0.001 Unfortunately, because of my job relocation I have to move to the Akron area..... probably time to buy an alarm for my vette.

Went to the Volo Auto Mall a couple weeks ago and saw the actual TWIN to the real "Corvette Summer" car.. The promotional version which was left hand drive BTW...

I remember thinking how unbelievably cool that car was back in the 70's when I was a kid!!! Seeing it all these years later, it is FUGLY....

So too is this bad boy.. Looks like that thing is at an amusement park BTW..

Nope not Bubba's unless it was a pimped pick-up. How many ho's does one get in the back of a pick-up?

This is the car equivalent of a double bagger. A cover for the car and a bag over your head in case the cover falls off.

My question is what the hell was this doing at a NCRS event?

Or was it the "Not Correctly Restored Stingray" Meet?

...I lived in Akron, Ohio for 27yrs before moving to Massillon, Ohio. There is some very nice Akron neighborhoods where you won't have any trouble, unless you're moving to L.A.(Lower Akron).
