Having some flame throwers in there is the only reason I can think of.

Flamethrowers are amusing on a street rod, but rather out of place on a Corvette.

Actually I love autozone....I have a rebate card and all,

People do weird things and seeming that the c5/c6 crowd are motivated and jazzed by things ranging from new floor mats to all kinds of things that get added with double sided tape seems this owner went a step further,

I have to admit I like the c5/c6 mods that are import tunser inspired far more than this mess....

Default stacks
Reminds me of my youth on the ranch and the various tractors we had with stacks. Maybe he plows with his Vette. Or at least pulls a disc or harrow.

That guy doesn't deserve to have a Vette.

There is just way too many things wrong with that!!!!
and just to show just how off that guy is the rain caps on the stacks are backwards, they should open up towards the back, not the front.

But I dont understand how anyone would think that looks good.
