Saw that one last week and saved the pics...I actually like it, the interior is awesome. I never liked the C4 conversion rear bumper but on this car it looks good, wouldn't mind owning it.

Why would somebody do that to a '69? If you don't want chrome bumpers, don't buy a chrome-bumpered car! The tires are too narrow for the wheels and the interior sucks butt. Overall, the work looks half-baked.

I don't know if it is an illusion, but the rear license plate looks off center, like it's about 1 inch to the left. That would drive me crazy!
Overall I don't care much for the chrome bumpers being deleted.

This guy should be shot. How dare he have imagination and do something out of the ordinary. The seats look good, but they aren't stock.. 
The door panels look like they took too much time and effort... The paint and body work look too..........nice..... The guy deserves a kick in the ***** for putting so much effort into a car....No wonder he is selling it, he probably got too much flack from the "real" Corvette guys.......

I hate digital dashes, but that interior is so clean, I can't help but like the guages.
I dig the front, the back I'm still kind of up in the air on. I don't care for the C4 rear end conversion, but he did do a very nice job with is.

A chrome bumper car should retain its chrome bumper at all costs.
