Corvette that's not a Corvette
Well, i got the grass cut today and then it started to rain so i'm board, stuck in the house, with nothing to do. Here's what i came up with.
Since i am a vette nut as many of you are, i decided one day to do some modding to the mower.I had a guy at a show recently tell me he did the same to his golf cart. Anybody else.
My garage queen 2006 "corvette"
Bowling Green (almost.....kinda?)
Flush mount headlight.
Six speed manual trans
Sport seat (bout the same quality leather as GM)
Reverse opening hood
Gray Motorsport wheels
Too much time on your hands will do this to ya. Lets see yours

Get some hydrocarbon trim, painted fuel rail covers, LED lights and a set of CCWs and it will be done!

Just need some headers, aftermarket exhaust and floor mats and I'd say you have a winner.
