Default Almost a Vette

I am one step closer to calling this car a corvette. Some C6 wheels will be on it by the end of the week. Just waiting for the spacers. Maby next will be the Z51 brakes.

Hey,Don't matter what make or model it is,Fact is,It's a dammed beautiful ride and it's yours.
I have a BroncoII,an 07 HHR,A slick 96 conversion Van,a Windstar,2 gas scooters and a gokart and they're not Vettes but I'm very proud of them cause they are mine.
If you love your ride don't worry or care what others might think.

That's a beauty you have though.

It's all in good fun. You guys have your corvettes and I have a 12 second diesel pickup. The car is my wifes. She is well worth a vette but she can't drive a standard and I won't have an automatic corvette.
