I can't say I'm a big fan of the new Bat-Mobi... I mean the new Corvette concept. But I'm sure it will grow on me

Pretty sick. I was looking at it and other than modifying the B-post (doesn't look like the trunk opens on this show car) it looks do-able on a C6. It would require a replacement of almost all panels though to be exact. Doors, hatch, and hood all seem to have the flaring from the fenders rolling into them. I think it might be possible to make a kit with front / rear bumpers, headlights, fenders, and quarter panels that would look very similar. The wheel well opening size was increased front and rear to go with the higher flaring of the fenders and allow bigger wheels (looks like 20/22's) This may require more than just modifying the wheel well liner, but the wheel well itself. The B-posts are angled back at the top and into the window at the bottom. Didn't care for the small side window so much.... The top view with the split rear window was nice. I also like the top view of the rear bumper with it protruding out in the middle, in line with the hatch-lines.... that is a great idea. I'd love to see how it looks from behind more.

Could be a fun project. I imagine done right the car would sell for a decent amount (in a good market anyway)

Thanks for sharing the link Gotta go see the movie!

That car is hot. I dont know what the hatters are thinking. Im sick of the c4c5c6 blend of years. My wife pointed out to me a 1999 vette the other day and said theres your car. Only ploblem is I have a 2007 zo6. A big difference in my eyes and other car guys. The problem is the rest of the population sees the same thing, over and over.

Clean up the two front corners of the car, it does not look very aerodynamic there. Give the rear the four srgnature tail lights and bam ! I would sign up on the waiting list.

So does anyone know who the Corvette character is supposed to be and if it will be an Autobot or Decepticon? It appears as if from that clip that it is rolling with Bumble Bee, Optimus Prime and the others but can anyone confirm this?

Sideswipe is an Autobot. The toys are going to be released on the 30th. He will be hard to find along with Bumblebee. Probably the 2 most popular ones.

The title of the posting really threw me off track.

I worked for the company that first issued Transformers for many years and 100's of prototypes were created and duplicated by my hands. I liked the video but it's not the Transformation I was expecting to see!
