Default Imaginary Corvette Options

This post is for all the sci-fi geeks out there. I watched Back to the Future the other night. It would be so cool to have jet rockets mounted in my wheels so my vette could fly. What fantasy mods would you make to your vette?

1) Fuel supply that never depletes.
2) A decent factory sound system.
3) A different Penthouse Pet in the passenger seat each time the car is used.

.........this Canuck built Black Panther Camaro had a James Bond console that had toggle switches for machine guns, ejection seats and stuff........I don't think the switches were functional




......for my Vette I want the Baldwin Motion Phase III option.....it's imaginary because I can't afford it......

How about an engine that starts every time you turn the key.

An auto wash, dry, polish, and detail after each drive.





Oh and that 708 Cube motor!

Right Hand Drive for us poor Australians who find it illegal/impossible to register a Left Hand Drive car UNDER thirty years old. Fortunately, my '74 L82 is now exempt from this law and as soon as winter's over, I'm getting her registered. It's been sitting in the garage for six and a half years since I bought it and I can't drive it!!!

Regards from Down Under

I know Aussiejohn has had other issues but If he had just pulled his finger out he would have already had it ready to register.
He could have put it on the Club Plate scheme which allows him to drive it LHD at 25 years old.
