Am speechless myself! Some body spent a lot of time putting this together, I spotted stuff from a C5 interior, wonder how much Nascar stuff included. Would like to see in person, just curious.

I'd like to meet the "gut" who built it. I think this guy should do a little proof reading. I can see why it gets more attention than a new Vette. That's not necessarily a positive though.

It looks like something that fell out of a cereal box. Or maybe it was an attempt to recreate a Boy Scout experience of building a toy car out of a chunk of 2x4 and adding some plastic wheels. Whatever it is, it is fugly!

The front end alone would look ok, not on a vette but on a true custom. The rest of it is not to my liking.

I really like it, but some idiot, hit it up with a spray can of black paint and ruined the upper surfaces. Sure it was worn and patina'd, but some dumb a$$es don't know when to leave well enough alone. That was a bad *** car, back in the day.
