Ah yes, the famous Twister Corvette. Very rare. He will probably get the $31,000.00 he had it appraised at. :jester

You know, I can't how anyone could look at a C3 and say " That's a real good looking car, if it only had a couple more spoilers, vents, louvers and skirts it would be perfect " :D

Boy that just goes as proof that just because you CAN do something doesn't make it a good idea.
I sometimes wonder if the people who do things like this to a 'Vette are manic?

I think John Donson drove that thing in the hit Canadian TV series Montreal Vise. They wanted to copy Miami Vise in everyway they could but had to work within a Canadian budget! :lol:

Nice use of electrical tape, just two strips hold the oil cap and the spark plug wires. :rolleyes:

Re: [ebay] bizarre '79 (Pedro'74)
The owners spent all their money on the exterior, and apparently forgot about the engine....all those holes won't make the car go any faster with that motor :lol:
