Went to a local car show a couple weekends ago, and I ran across this “Jewel”! Would it be fair to call it a diamond in the rough?

I can think of one forum member who would LOVE to have this car.

With it having an emblem on the hood with 'HEMI'..and FORD hubcaps and it being a Corvette. It covers just about all the bases so no one can hate it.

Nothing that couldn't be undone. Looks like he was having some fun while creating it. Pineapple velocity stacks?

Not my cup of tea and pretty darn tacky but i also see it as something the owner is having light hearted fun with, having a good time, not caring who likes it or not,
So my hats off to the builder....its nice to see someone without a stick in their butt or knot in their panties...

I agree, that the builder was just having fun, poking fun at just about everything, and I love it. Who knows, they might also have a legit NCRS Top Flight car too. Is it tacky, well yeah, that's the point, I'd say!

I like that he didn't wax it....

He got one thing correct for judging. Back window trim is all semi-gloss black. (1979)

How do you think those bamboo rear bumpers will hold up? Probably longer than the urethane! Love the running boards!

Sabre34

Wow! A rare Z 007!

Mod75

I agree that's its different, cant think of many more options i would like to add.

Really dig the wood grain on the doors tho

I think he upgraded it to a '73 model.......rubber front bumper/????? rear bumper

I wanna see the interior ,

I recall a rusty bagged sitting on the ground rat rod i saw once, ( back before rat rod mean any flat black pos )

It had lawn chair seats and a really tall cool shifter with a tiki and girl,
The hood ornament was an angry duck about 8 inches tall,

I did some google hunting, the duck was from the same molds as the one on the truck in convoy, about 200.00

The tiki shifter **** was a rare piece by some artist about 500 to 800,

So you never know about some of these artistic builds

Would be a great Corvette beater..
You can have all the fun and not worry about it getting hit or stolen.

I like the door *****...But how is he going to get in his house now....?

I'm sure the owner is quite proud of his/her creation. But, alas, despair abounds that the owner just can't get the car's surface to RUST!!!!

Barrist

We could just list the things the builder overlooked.
Such as ;

I don't see the "General Lee" lettering, or the "Bat Phone"

There isn't a single thing I like about it but who knows what condition it was in before the transformation.
Regardless someone is out there having fun driving and showing off their I'll call it creation.

I think that there is a subtle genius to it. Layer upon layer of absurdity.

DUDE that is one sweet wave stormer I dig the towel rack one the back. I can dry my wetsuit while driving down the 405
