Saw this one at a car show a couple years ago, belonged to a 16 year old. Dad had it painted for her, was originally white.

Yeah, count my wife in. Already bringing home some trophies. She just had surgery, so not looking her best.

Not really, no.

Scanlon was the first to make mention of it if you don't count the huge hint that Mr. Bill himself threw out.

Threw me for a post or two because that's an old pic of his car. The wheels, at the very least, have been modded since that photo.

I think this color suits you Bill. Maybe you should have it permanently repainted.

With all due respect to anyone that may own a pink Corvette, it's just not a color I would ever want on my car. For a lady owner, it works.

Sorry, no. His skill with a camera and photoshop allows him to make something that isn't real, look real!
