Default Any Corvette tattoos out there?

Just curious if anyone has a Corvette tattoo. I figure it's been around 50+ years, there has to be a few people with a tattoo of a Vette, script, flags, etc. Or will the GM licensing department try and confiscate your skin? So how about it fellas, and ladies. Any tats? Let's see.

I tried this and couldn't get much of a response a long time ago. Let's hope it is better now. There was a go-go dancer in a nightclub in the Philippines (pre-wife days ) that had the C4 emblem on the inside of her leg. I didn't have a digital camera then

Come on you don't have to be shy people. I for one will not make fun of you. As for the rest of the forum... well who knows? But still, I want to see them.

I've got plenty of ink, but I'll be damned if I'd put a corporate logo under my skin.

What the hell.....I'll show ya mine............ My 15 seconds of fame was when my tattoo was published in the April 2000 issue of Automobile Magazine when they did a spread on Mid America and the photographer was looking for a tattoo to put in the spread and chose mine. My way of paying a little tribute to all things American!

As a physician, I'm also curious as to the "ink". In med school, we had a guy in my class who was an ex-Army Ranger. He was nice enough but one of those guys that was quiet and just a little too into firearms. He had tatoos up and down his arms. The problem was that he was dead set on being an OB/GYN. I did a rotation with him during an OB/GYN clerkship and I was always of the impression that he didn't give women that "warm and safe" feeling when he walked into the labor room with those arms peaking out of his scrub top. Certain folks look "cool" and "badass" with a bunch of tatts; your doc, attorney, CPA, or bank president ain't one of them.

All of my tattoos are one-of-a-kind. Not from flash. So I've never posted them on-line since I don't want to have some kitchen table scratcher try to copy them.
