So tell me what my asking price should be, and please don't hold back. Just tell me how much you would pay for these soon to be, rare specimens.

I would have custom frames made and give them out as Christmas gifts. Maybe hang one in your office for memories.

Could they be considered 1 of a kind Corvette Frisbees? Come to think of it, it would actually be 4 of a kind !

Still looking for a good home for these gems

Seriously, you still haven't figured out by all the comments that the only "good home" for them is the garbage? If you want to sell them post an ad in the for sale section.

My only purpose for this thread was to bring some fun new content for all the great C5 viewers here. So with over 1700 views, mission accomplished

Yes, these are going in the for sale section soon. i just found an old pizza box in the garage , not too greasy, that will work well to pack these in to ship to what i can only guess, will be an anxious and proud new owner !



All the best

Dave

Did you paint your caliper brackets yourself? If so, thats a nice match - not many companies make a close matching torch red - can you please share a picture of the product you used?

Thanks!
