Hard to believe that at one time, in the far distant past, the original owner proudly drove his brand new '77 Corvette home from the dealership!! Now it is just a plain ABORTION!!!!

Everyone is proud of something, the person who built that car is surely proud of their efforts even if it doesn't meet with favor on this forum.

What a mess.
I really like the stop sign doorpanel. I think it was two quarts of moonshine that did it. There is no amount of beer that would make someone think that would be cool.

Some of the same folks that rage about folks picking their car apart are picking this guys car apart. Amusing if nothing else.
