Alot of people even vette ownes don't care for this model. I personally love it and would keep it original but with Admiral Blue with white interior, and yes I would keep the original V6 in it. In addition, I would drive the hell out of it even take it to the drag strip. Some might say spend the money on a newer model it is a 56, actually one of the last 56 made. Well still looking for a photoshop person to hopefully hook me up with a admiral blue pic. Thanks

I saw one last year at a car show with about 250-300 participants. It was bright yellow, on air bags - slammed, 18" Billet Specialties wheels - tubbed, with a custom painted LS1 which matched the exterior color. It won best of show - car was the baddest thing I ever saw. I would give the left testy for it.

I've seen it too...he is a Goodguys member. I could see why some traditionalists wouldn't care for it, but it was definitely kickass!
