Z06 overkill poster

Hey guys if anyone is looking for the OVERKILL poster I found one for sale on Ebay. As many know this is hard to find and only come up for sale once and awhile. I have one mounted and on display in my garage looks awesome. The link is below.

this is probably the most overpriced piece of memorabilia for the c5

those posters fetch over 100 dollars and were give aways at dealers in 2001. i had a few of them back in the day

still surprises me people are paying what they do for those

Wow. Looking over his feedback it doesn't look like he actually sold any of them... much less any poster for 65. Hint, hint.

Print shops are "technically" not allowed due to copyright laws.
If they are caught they could be sued.

If you have a friend at a print shop.... and you kept it quiet...

other thing about this poster is how it was printed. it's not on regular paper and the ink and overall appearance are different than the average promo poster

Here is a picture of mine...sorry about the flash. The 2004 CE poster has signatures from assembly line employees who made the CEs. I was invited by the NCM to be one of 4 cars allowed inside the factory for BGs 30th Anniversary back in 2011. We had an 81, 96 GS, my Z16 and a ZR1 inside the factory as a display for the celebration. Makes that poster pretty neat!
