Call me crazy, but I think its kinda cool!!! You boys need to stop outside the box a bit.

Go smoke a spliff, put on a suede purple suit jacket, open collar silk shirt, some gold chains, and then we'll see what you say.

I think it does look good with the pipes because the chrome motif carries through the whole car.

Who DOESNT loves Wires? Man, get some 17 Dayton 120 spokes and THEN we'll be talking.

I approve!!

So does mold.




Seriously, though...the car ain't a bad looker, except for that tire kit. If it were mine, I'd unbolt the kit and put it away for safe-keeping. You never know if/when it could be worth something.

Used to have a photo of 76 with a Continal tire and 73 Grand Prix tail lights. Sounds odd but the lines acuauly don't look that bad.. I'll see if I can dig up the photo.

Remove the tire and it's a very nice looking Vette.

It does grow an you. Now that I've seen one, I wonder why I haven't seen others? A big percentage of the T-Birds from 55-57 had them, and the kits were popular on other cars into the 60's.

It is totally inappropriate for a Corvette. It should be removed by the fastest method possible even if it takes a torch, destroyed, pics. destroyed & this thread deleted! Then you would have a nice Corvette.

Excellent Taste in Corvettes & how to get it.
