And to think, just a couple of days ago......I was drooling over the 88 yellow Countach they have up for sell.

While I often like to see some of the "unique" things people will do to a vette...........this one.........

D**N, that's ugly. I'd leave that in a bad neighborhood with the keys in it and the insurance paid.

I saw a metallic gray one in a Corvette magazine a few months ago, and I thought it looked, uh, unusual. That yellow one is downright hideous!

I usually defend the guys who put body kits on their cars for being unique. Can't defend this one.

I was going to remark on that other hideous POS; but you beat me to it.
Looks like the corvette version of the Family Truckster. I can see Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo tooling around in this!
I wonder if it will hit the reserve

I think the hood vents look pretty cool. Other than that....no.

A lot of work went into it, though.

The only thing decent looking thing on it is the interior, rims, and the engine. No bids either. Starting price of 50K?

I think that's called "dis-placed creativity".

It sure is creative, but instead of a Vette, they should've put that creative energy into, say, a modern art sculpture or something. I think they were leaning toward making a Mach 5 look-a-like.

That poor Corvette. It makes me want to cry. I think that borders blasphemy.
