that yugo is a funny cut up, mean, but funny.... by the way, that is the ugliest modified vette you've got posted there above it I've ever seen.... and imagine the time and $$$$$$$$$ invested to do that!!!!!! reminds me of the vette destruction in the movie "Corvette Summer".... that was some ugly mods on that vette too.

Just my 2 cents.... , But I have to say on the other side of the coin... I have seen alot of really nice graphics too. I plan on air brushig a dragon on my 73 El-Camino hood breathing fire forward and sweeping back along the fenders. It's Name is the " Draggin' Waggin' ".

Take care all and have fun with your graphics and mods!

ive seen some graphics i dont mind, but skulls are just cheesy on cars. and i think the punisher skull is awesome.

now if you did it under the hood on a finished underside, that would be cool :smash:

I thougt the hood was raised for clearnace of the air cleaner on new C3s. Induction is ram on the newer vintage; some older ones were cowl inducted. you may need to go to a low profile air cleaner with a lower hood.

Hey Metal Wulf,

Where did you get that pic of the punisher skull at?

:cheers:
I photochopped my avatar from a pic on the official site a few months ago... I use this pic I photochopped as my wallpaper:
(click for larger version)


I love the punisher and the skull, i have the shirts and all that stuff. HOWEVER... I'd never put a huge skull or anything on my car. Ghost flames, stripes, stuff like that sure...

There's only one skulled vette I like and it's a C5:

I don't think you need a flat hood . Here is a pic of my hood and its fine.
Well I say it is, you be the judge.
The first pic I had to alter in order to post it here.

Metal Wulf,

Could you post a large version of your avatar like you did with the skull you photoshopped?

I'd like to get a closer look at that. What did you do to it? It looks almost just like the one in the movie! :cheers:
I don't have a larger version, the pic i got it from was small to begin with. It is the skull from the movie, i got it off the shirt thomas jane wears... http://www.apple.com/trailers/lions_...sher/trailer2/

I've seen that car in person. It looks even better than the pics. The flames etc. are all ghosted so from distance, its just a black vette.

Oh yeah, and its FAST TOO!
