Default One Fugly 73 Stingray!

In the latest issue of Corvette Fever, there is one......dare I say it......FUGLY '73 on page 40. I'm sorry, I don't like to say bad things about corvettes, but the color and mods of that one are :U They even painted the chrome! :eek: :confused: And what makes it worse???? The car used to be Elkhart Green!!!! I know! I know! Too each his or her own, but to me that is truly a desacration of what was once a beautiful vette! :( :cry Sorry Vette diva, but that is just my opinion.

I agree. Normally I say to each his own, but the color, the painted over chrome, the accesorized trim. :eek:

VetteChick, you're near Baltimore, there's a red 75 on Erdman Ave in town with (get this) heart shaped rear lights. No kidding. I will try and get a piccy next time I'm down there.

Yikes

Hey Steve;
What part of Erdman? I get over there quite frequently, I'd like to see this installation. I don't know if I'd like it or not, but it would be worth a look.

Happy daze..............Norm'

What kind of air cleaner is that?!?! It looks pretty trick. Almost looks like it's functional with the cowl induction. Anyone know who makes it? (I think I'd prefer black / chrome though) :D

Not Erdman, Edison Highway between Sinclair and E.Federal .If you know where WESCO is (the electrical wholesalers) there is a used car lot across the street next to Rockland Industries. It's in there, a red one.

Ya gotta see it :eek:
