Long time stalker
finally registered to prove a point and damned if it didnt wipe out where I was after I logged in. I have probably had over 100 corvettes as a dealer, the best one I ever had was a POS. But just like your ex-wifes 2nd baby daddy offspring I still loved it. So purist watch out I may hurt feelings but its all in fun. Pics are not in order but neither am I so you can sort it out. Had a vid of my animated tail lights in action but it wouldnt let me upload it

car has full digital dash with 15 inch monitor in center. every button in the car, windows, lights, ign, was wired to raspberry pi GPIO to control everything on touch screens apparently GM didnt believe in relays back in the day. the 2 that were included in my car were fan and theft. and the were the size of a shoe box each. how do u have a theft relay with no starter interupt? you can steal the car and honk honk honk as your driving away? yea lets put this engineering on a pedestal.

Not totally clear on the point your trying to prove. As per the "Fabulous" Alarm systems back in the 70's. Think about it. How many cars had any factory Alarm??.
And no your not the first to customise one. And yes many will think you spent money to devalue your car.
It's your car. Do as you wish. Some will think it's really cool. Others, well, not so much.
And the point your trying to prove is???

Welcome to the forum!
If you have had probably 100 corvettes as a dealer and the nicest one you had was a POS you should fire your car buyer! LOL!
What headlights did you put in?
Any interior shots you can share?

Gotta go with the others those lights do work with the car.
WISH I had talent for bodywork, tried it so many times...just dont have the eyes for it. Same with airbrushing
I love custom C3s they were made for this stuff....to see how rough the body was in those pics and going to a smooth finish intimidates me> Think Id have looked at it shut the toobox garage door and avoided it for 10 yrs

I love customized Vettes!
What are the lights from? They look like they're from a Celica, which I've seen used a few times before.

Like the body work and lights (but would never buy it).
Those wheels are hideous.
Hate the donk look for this car.
You got those big flares, fill them up with 315's.
You're cursive sucks. Took me too long to figure out "Sinner"
What's planned for the interior?
Everyone's a critic, but you put it out there. Not a purist, feelings not hurt.

Granted,lots of work, I just don't like the way the fenders don't flow to the nose any more, they have to bulge around the lights.
But you're (notice correct use of apostrophe LOL) the only one who needs to love it And you can see a whole lot better at night than I can LOL
