I never could understand the idea of the "Kit" car....aside from the early VW chasis ones to make the Excaliber...but to take a Corvette and turn it into a Viper??????

Thanks for serving our country and be safe over there!

The car actually looks good next to all the crap laying around in the yard and the garage.
It is a Jethro and Ellymae conversions next to their curb appeal Landscaping and Home remodel projects.

And Thanks for Serving Enjoy the Holiday

For the same reason people put C5 body kits on their early C4. They want to pretend their car is something it is not. The sad part is for the price of this goofy bodykit and all the time that would go into making it look halfway normal he could have built a nice Corvette that would walk away from a stock Viper.

We could buy the car with donations from members, then sell the right to shoot at it or hit it with a hammer or something and donate it to the guys brain surgery cause he clearly needs one.
