Awwwwww.... don't be so hard on the car. It didn't want that to happen to it. That car looks to be in pretty good shape for only $15K.

Once the ad is down, this could be lost forever.... so I will do my best to burn in into our memories...

...just noticed the shape and size of the hole in the hood. Looks like it use to have a nice big ?-71 blower sticking through.

You have to wonder. Guy owns a corvette. He stands in his garage looking at the car and thinks, what sort of stupid crap can I do to my car.

Or he was rear ended by a pickup and couldn't decide what to do with the parts.

He couldn't be happy to just make it into a convertible. That would have been cool. Lou.

I think it's a pretty nice touch. Besides, you won't have to look at the goats that you're carrying out back when driving.

Could you just imagine trying to explain this thing to a cop that pulls you over for carrying an improperly secured load.

This might be the dumbest custom corvette I've seen. It's creator should have used his time and talents making some birdhouses with a corvette logo instead of liquid-nailing a wooden box onto a corvette.

So... it's a prettier El Camino?

For all the atrocity, you have to appreciate that he left the lines of the car alone. He fit the bed in there without destroying the look of the tail end... as much as he could have. Certainly solved the problem of the limited storage space in the convertibles.

Am I the only one thinking that the driver and/or passenger would be crushed to death if there were even a minor rear end collision?

I also have to wonder why somebody with the skill set to create this vehicle, would waste their time in this manor.
