The end product was a monstrosity and this guy who was the brains of the outfit has lost a lot of clout in the hobby because of this. If you watch closely, despite the best efforts of the editors, it is obvious that the VIPs are less than impressed during the big reveal.

Corvette Summer is like "Citizen Kaine" or "TheGodfather" compared to the horrifying experiment portrayed in this program.

i would agree. like it or not ( I did like it when I was a kid ), the car in Corvette Summer, was at least an original take. it was a product of the '70's but it did have some style
( again, '70's style ). their was no way he could have come up with a 'missing link' corvette. as has been mentioned previously, the 1984 is basically the 1983.

That was the waste of an hour of my life. Split window was bad! Analog gauges.......bad. Those WHEELS! BAD. The single cove.......bad. The whole thing had fitment issues. And looking at it, you can understand why Chevrolet added the black molding all around the car in 84. Hid those bad fitment lines. And on this thing, where they added the "split window" had the most severe noticeable fitment issue. Sorry, but this thing was a miss and made the builder look more of a fool in the eyes of Corvette enthusiasts than before.

it was a disappointment to me as well. I liked the wheels but, maybe not on that generation. or at the least it should have been lowered. white wasn't the best color either as it doesn't hide a thing. I like the gauges though ( especially compared to the stock digital - KITT-like unit ). this was bit too much J.C. Whitney'ish for me. the best thing was the engine but, that would not have offered in 1983.

the more I look at it, it reminds of a hot wheels car. ok detail for a toy but, in this case when scaled up to
a full sized car, those details are exposed. it also looks like it's 4-wheel drive too.

The Lost (my lunch looking at this) Corvette

worsest? it's not any worse then the 1983 'vette.

Oh Boy

If that "83" made it to production the Corvette program would have been discontinued after this year!

Looks like he installed a lift kit.

I wasted an hour of my life on this. I thought it was going to be a story about the 83 Corvette development. I was not impressed.

I finally watched this last night on the dvr, and didn't quite understand what the premise of the show was. It was just plain stupid, considering that I saw the real car at the Museum last summer. Thanks for posting the picture, I thought I was losing it for a minute!
