Default C4 Love

Why is it so hard to find items related to the C4. I feel like I own the bastard year. I was looking for a C4 t-shirt and I was only able to find one and it has a gray C4on it. I would like maybe a red shirt with the c4 logo. I even didn't see a diecast version of the C4.

You do!

Keep on lookin', I've seen alot of stuff for the C4, just hard to find. I guess you've got to find old stuff from when the C4 was new.

I agree, but the way I look at it is that, personally, if I didn't have a 'bastard year' vette then I couldn't afford one at all!!

Still sucks though....

I'm going to try making my own T's - most of the crappy designs I've seen I'd be too embarrassed to wear

Yeah, we're in the corvette slump. The C3's just got out of it a few years back and now the C4's are the bastard step-childs. If my numbers are correct (basing on the C3's bastardness back to coolness), we've got 5-7 more years of red headed stepchildness. Then it'll be the C5's turn.

Eckler's C4 catalog is full of T's jacket, blankets, parts, wheels, etc for just C4's.

If you want a custom T-shirt, then try cafepress.com and create your own free store, upload a photo or graphic you want on a T-shirt, hat or whatever, and they print it for you. Best "1-off" tshirt place I have dealt with. I have made several hats and shirts for my barber shop using them, and couldn't be happier with quality, and price - plus they ship fast.
