Im voting strictly on the pics posted. Based on this, there should be rules for photos.
No driveway pics. Have em take pics at local popular sites or on the road. I dont like voting for trailer/garage queens haha not fair if you dont put in the effort to at least see it roadworthy.

all these cars had extensive motor and suspension mods, some more than others. When we posted them most if us had a list of all the parts we had installed. Thanks for the vote Pvirg but my intention was to just get everyone to vote. I've won in the past so Im not fishing for votes. Its just cool to see all the cars that were entered. Theres some really cool unmolested cars in the unmodified thread. I wish we could have a nationwide meet up to check everyones ride out. Then a gumball ralley across the country to get wings and barbecue somewhere!!!

I editted the links to geive them labels just incase people thought there was a duplicate link

The modified section almost makes me wish my LS5 would fall out of the engine bay and not be repairable to give me every excuse to drop in a more modern motor and suspension along with a 5 or 6 speed....

You can convert your LS5 to a Hydraulic roller motor, use the best heads and intake you can buy and it will be just as awesome as any new motor....depenong on your compression ratio, unless you want an aluminum block....Horsepower doesnt care what style or how old the pump is, it cares about efficiency. My old school 327 is pretty wild with new school tech inside it...Now a 5 speed will really make a huge difference over any 4 speed, that you cant just throw parts at.
What you need is a giant bag of money to fall out of the sky so you can do all this...LOL

This is probably what keeps me from going modified on the C3... Picked her up after ordering her 6 years ago this week... Promptly had a ton of engine work done as I was upset about the Z06 being announced at such a good price while mine was in production.... Had them slap 700 HP to the wheels '15 Z51 3LT

I love your car!!! The color is my favorite. If I can add another car to my stable, that will be it! Unfortunately, I can’t buy it new any longer, so I’ll have to find a used 7 speed.
