Guru, I guess I misread 3) haters suck. I thought you meant people who hated the doors. Sorry.

 

Haters are people who ridicule people with differing tastes.

 

lets see, my mods to my c3 are:

lambo doors
molded in front and rear bumpers
shaved door handels and locks
shaved marker lights
new designed interior
fiberglassed subwoofer box in the back with an amp/t-top rack
new rear end
air ride suspension
and possibly a playstation...

my whole reason to do this is since i'm a young guy (28) i'm really into custom rods and lowriders.....so, i think i might be the first to trick a vette and still keep the lines of the vette......not over done but simple/clean mods

cryzko

p.s. it's MY project car.......

 

pictures??? cryzko??

 

Sounds nice, definitely need pictures. Or are they not done yet?

You ARE doing something with the engine right?

 

You guys seriously suck. I'm really disappointed with the members here. There is very little useful information in this thread, just people saying how much scissor or butterfly doors suck. Worst part is that you all probably would've thought it was a cool idea had you not seen it done in the aftermarket on Hondas first.

 

i've seen lambo doors on s-10's and blazers in the mid 90's..... it wasn't until the ricer scene got big here in the u.s. a few years ago..... in hong kong ricers were out in the early 90's...... my friend is from hong kong and used to street race...... anyways, i can send pics if you want to see my project. i don't have a server to post unless someone wants to throw them up for me..... i'll even give u pics of me robottin'....... yes i still "breakdance" with my crew......... anyways that's another topis maybe i'll post a topic for.....

thanks
cryzko

 

ohh yeah,

i'm having my dad investigate my engine possiblities with me...... he had a 74 that he sold a few years ago and regrets it to this day... maybe if i run into some cash i'll buy him another c-3...... i just want to do some minor mods to the engine, bore it out, new cam, some chrome, hoses, etc...... any suggestions would help..... i'm not trying to drag it or race it..... it's for cruising and hittin' the highway...

cryzko :steering:

 

cryzko, if you go to http://www.hpphoto.com/servlet/com.b...wp=mbrshp.html you can register and get a few megs of space for free to show your pics. It is a pretty good site considering it is free.

 

...'til it ends up on eBay. That will make an interesting thread.

Actually, all this over the top body mod stuff works in my favor because it only helps to increase the value of my C3. Thanks! :thumbs:

 

sure..... well, once it's done and i'm hitting up the autorama and other car shows that appreciate custom mods then it's ALL GOOD.

thanks for the link for the pics...... give me a few days to get them up.....

cryzko

 

I definitely want to see pics cryzko!! :chevy

 

You do what you want, Cryzko. Tell Bill Mitchell times have changed!

 

I might not do it to mine, but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate other's work.

Post some pics. :cheers:

 

:withstupid:

 

I have seen these doors on a C4 Here are the pics.

 

no pics

 

pics :skep:

 

A guy at work installed these doors on his Mitzu GT. Works well, good system, accept the adjustable hydrolic lift piston malfunctioned and bonked him in the head. :lol: Not my idea of quality

Yea, I don't like what I consider goofy novelty body mods. So what? Oh, expressing that I don't like and have little appreciation for something make me SO awful. I don't like something, say so, and now I'm a "hater". We all hate something, even those of you calling someone with an unfavorable opinion "haters". You don't like my opinion enough to name call so I guess you're "haters" too. Makes you suck too I guess. Funny how that flies back in your faces. :lol:

True, if a car is yours, do what you want with it, but realize if your going to modify things that most consider sacred and already perfect, like the car's traditional fundamental aesthetics, then be ready for the reality that those that don't like nor appreciate those types of changes it will express it. Do outrageous unconventional stuff and flack is a given. Deal. You have every right to change your car, but I have the right not to like it and say so. If I express my opinion and it makes me a "hater" because expressing a negative opinion is "wrong", then it's only fair to say if you radically modify your Vette then it makes you a "butcher" because making such dramatic changes are "wrong". If I'm a hater then people who seriously modify their Vette's looks are butchers. I mean, if we are going to name call let's be fair and sling mud in both directions. :boxing Don't call people with differing opinions haters and I won't call people with different tastes who significantly modify their Vette's appearance butchers, how's that?

Personally, I don't care what you might do with your own car. Paint it with green and purple polka dots and glue fur to it for all I care, but if you do I'm gonna laugh and probably even point while I do. And don't be surprised when you've outgrown it that you're going to have a lot of trouble unloading something that very few or only you can appreciate. I don't care what you do to your Vette's value, but you should, and eventually you will. It's your car and your money. Flush it down the toilet all you want. That's all funny to me. Also, funny how it's all "cool" 'till it shows up on eBay, then the members of this forum will tear into it like a pack of hungry wolves.

Oh, and Bill Mitchell is long dead, so you can't tell him anything. :blueangel:
