Is this Corvette summer-esque?
Found this article in the local paper. Check the wheels out, it's on a "1971 Cadillac El Dorado" frame.

Well, that car earns The 13 bats seal of disapproval,
NO!
That car makes the Corvette summer car look like a rare beautiful jewel,
While I defend a persons right to build what they desire, at lease don't paint a hack job, the body looks like it was formed with Play-Doh,
The teeth are all cockeyed but not in a cool random way, but remove the teeth and you have a face like the bumble snow beast after the elf dentist got to him,
I would love to see the rest of this mess, or is there just the one picture?
But really it's almost a moot point since the thing isn't really a Corvette,

This is a little different angle, but not real clear!

All I can say is that it is his car and probably will be for a long long time.

If that's an Eldo/Toronado frame it might be FRONT WHEEL DRIVE!!!!
It could be as strange underneath as it is on top!
It's a nice color and its shiny! (There, I wasn't only negative.)
