Re: Check out this Greenwood Corvette. (Thad)
ive never liked the greenwood style but this vettes front looks unreal :cool: if the rear end didnt have the wide mod. the vette would be to kill for..

Re: Check out this Greenwood Corvette. (1980 razz)
The front looks great, however, I would cut the stock rear right down the middle add spacer fiberglass and expanded the stock rear to meet those wide fenders.....Then it would have that wide stance to go along with the rest of the car. I agree that rear end is butt ugly... :seeya

Re: Check out this Greenwood Corvette. (74-Roadster)
I like it. Of course, I like Cappy's yellow 8T1 in his sig pic better, but if I was going to go full tilt custom, I would want it done like the greenwood. :cool:

Re: Check out this Greenwood Corvette. (Eddie 96)
Although I'm not a big custom fan, I think this car is fantastic with the exception of the headlights. What's with eliminating the hideaways? Since I was a kid, I have always loved the James Bond quality of hideaways. When I see them eliminated, I can only figure that the owner got frustrated or lost patience with the vacuum system.
Incorporating the 1969 gills into the hood scoop was pure brilliance. It's hard to believe they could even mention the ridiculous "Corvette Summer" in the article.

Re: Check out this Greenwood Corvette. (Carl in LA)
Does anyone still run across any greenwood kits ?
I'd like to pick one up for my vette, I love their look.
This one looks particularly badass though :)

Re: Check out this Greenwood Corvette. (Anar76)
Looks like a cross between a Vette and the batmobile. Whatever floats your boat I guess. Personally, I don't like it. But thats just my opinion :D

Re: Check out this Greenwood Corvette. (Eddie 96)
I saw that thing the Vettfest in Chicago this fall :)
Was pretty cool, one thing i noticed about that show, too many
chevys, not enough vettes. Didnt' see a single '74. :(
It is a pretty cool car, kind of batmobilish, but cool :cool:

Re: Check out this Greenwood Corvette. (VETDRMS)
To each his own.. but why do all "customs" have those head lights? I don't like them... not to flame anyone that has them or likes them... but it's such a "vette thing" to have the pop ups. The only real application would be in a racer.. to ahve the sunk in lights with some plexiglass over them to keep the drag down when you had to ahve the lights on :yesnod:
