Poor little Corvette. It has a bigger reputation than a floozy high school cheerleader.

Wish I could return it to something a little less, ahem... blatant.

I bet many high school cheerleaders said the same thing 10 years later.

Hey who knows...one day this may be what everyone wants their C3 to look like.

that's worse than a cheeleader, that's a pimp mobile to the max. He shouldn't just be locked up for selling his ho's, but also for doing that to a Vette.

Hi,
I want to think that it's just a joke that someone with a vinyl business did in his spare time.
Maybe?

Probably woke up one morning, after a long night in the garage, someone must have slipped him a ruffie.

The ONLY way this would ever be appreciable in my eyes would be to see it in the center ring of Barnum & Bailey and then 32 really badass clowns pile out of it. For all we know, maybe that already happened.

OK, so even then it would be a stretch.

Well Alan,
I like your positive attitude giving the benefit of the doubt and all, but I think white walls are the real deal!

Awesome, guess the bar is set a little higher now.
Among the other mods, does it appear that the headlight doors have been lowered?

That monstrosity is truly the product of a sick mind, but I wouldn't go so far as to put it down to symptoms from the "mod bug" a good number of us have contracted, at least not to the same strain.

...and, FYI, this one's already made it around the interweb and appeared here on the CF more than a couple of times.
