My first Corvette was a 72 LT1 coupe in Ontario Orange. It wasn't as intense as this one, but I like this one just the same.

Well it has been done on the Atomic Z with the Callaway Aerobody. It looks sweet. Bottom picture is in between two lingenfelter Aerobodies

I think it would look good on a C4 but I also think the dark (black IMCO) wheels complete the look.

Yep the Ligenfelter kit was not as refined as the Callaway kit. You cant see it on the black car however the fitment is the same.
