Good idea, those wagons have to go.
Check out tomz or bobs house of wheels for pretty good pricing.
The C6 Z06 would look great.

Like some others have posted, chrome C6's on pewter, look awesome. But I may be a little biased.

You asked for ideas.. http://www.grantdailey.com/WWMakeover/

I personally like the 97-99 "Wagon Wheels" with or without the stickers. They are cheap, light and strong.
