They coulda at least done a better job than that! Come on now, are those rivets supporting the back panel?

And from what is that rear window? Perhap a 73 Datsun, 79 Toyota?

wow, thats . i have to admit it doesnt look as bad as some of the other 'modified' corvettes. That micky mouse thing comes to mind.

maybe it was in a wreck, and that was the cheapest way to get it back on the road ? just chop off the bad parts?
