Default A-Team Corvette

I have watching DVD re-runs of the A-Team and I really like the C4 that was white with the big red stripe down it and red interior. Was that a custom car, or did the factory make a few version with that package?

You have more courage than I, my friend!!

This was probably NOT a stock Corvette. After seeing their Dodge van, there should be NO question.....

If I remember correctly, that was just a regular white vette with red interior. The stripe was actually a sticker that was applied on the set and then removed later. I believe they used a number of cars during the filming of that show and just moved the stripe...

car from the show is owned by a private party - maybe in Wisconson??

Anyways, it still has the stripe and there was even boot prints on the interior leftover from Hannibal leaping in and out of Faceman's Vette

...I pity the fool!

Ron, I think the site from where you are linking the picture won't allow it to be viewed. I had the same problem and then just moved a copy onto my webpage.

I think Faceman posted on the corvetteforum 3 or 4 years ago. He got kicked off for being a donkey.
