I like the dog better than the car which looks like it was stolen from an amusement park kiddie ride.

It may have been a "race car," but I highly doubt it was competitive. That thing is ugly But it does have "Ford wiring." That's got to be worth something.

The Peterbuilt probably has the vette in the dash.

The low rider is cool if you like that sort a thing. I haven't seen to many painted just one solid color though.

The 79 vette. Wow. The owner must of been on a three day crack binge. Another C-3 out for the count.

You always will see cars butchered up in many countless of ways. But i must say, Even though I just bought my first Vette it has always bothered me to see a Corvette treated that way. Major Fail!
