Your C6 is one of the nicest I have seen, I just don't care for the hoodliner, otherwise it is very nice.

Thanks. I just got bored with the painted Corvette logo that everone else had and wanted to do something different. I realize not everyone is going to like it, but I smile when I lift the hood and see that evil bastard under there and he tells me it's time to go abuse my tires again.

Seriously though, I think you did a fantastic job on that machine, I always thought it was a pretty class act not in need of the of the bling. But it's just me and only my $.02. I realize it's all in fun. You did good.

Ya know, there's only 15 plastic retainers holding that hoodliner on. Wouldn't take me long to pull it off and go back to being an uninspired member of the flock of sheep like that rest of you

Thanks. You're right it's all about the engine. So for my next trick, I'll remove all the bling, gut the interior and spray the exterior in primer. Then I'll be all Go and no Show. Oh, and replace the automatic with a manual trans. Then I'll be hardcore enough to hang with some of you guys.

You haven't made it yet and need to try harder.

Real Red Devil "Inspiration"………….. acccept no substitute! The hoodliner would still work, though.

I only want to scare people when I open the hood.
Besides how could I ever compete with that Pontiac screaming chicken?

Ya know.... I kept looking at my post about the "Pitch fork" and keep thinking it didn't look right, but couldn't think of the right word.

Must have been too early/late in the day for the brain to kick into "thesaurus mode"... hmmm I wonder if there is another word for thesaurus... have too look it up in one...
