Myth Busters Corvette!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG. They are going to ruin a perfectly good corvette. This is the first time I have watched this show. Man these guys are crazy. They are putting a dead pig in an 87 vette and gonna let it set for a month and then try to get the smell out of the car. :U

As bad as it was for them to ruin the car. I am also disappointed in the guy for selling it to them. They told him what they were doing, but he had no problem stuffing the cash in his pocket. :nono: :cuss

Re: Myth Busters Corvette!!!!!!!!!!!!! (corvettemaster)
At the end they say that it had over 125,000 miles on it. If it was really his "baby", he could have given the money back. Wonder what they paid him for it. The may have made it worth his while so he just let it go.
Still a waste of a Corvette :mad :mad :mad

I thought they said a quarter of a million miles (250,000) with 25,000 miles on the engine rebuild.

Re: Myth Busters Corvette
There are far more egregious acts that have occurred for television vanity with Corvettes. How can we forget the Monster Garage episode where Jesse hacked a '73 bigblock to make a mud racer? I don't have anything against '87 Vettes but butchering a '73 beyond salvation...unforgiveable!
