Here's the perfect one for you guys that want to go C5 but just cant let go of C4. Now I've seen it all! I just had to share this.
It's Frankenvette! Crazy huh?

That car [I am reluctant to call it a Corvette], is like a older woman that had too much plastic surgery.

The guy is willing to trade it for a 66-68 mustang. I wonder what he is going to turn that into?

Its a C45. Its not hard to pick one out of the crowd. The halo and headlights give it away. Most of the conversion kits don't fit worth-a-darn. A trick paint job will hide most of the fitment problems. Notice the left headlight?

That'd be like dating a 'girl' that had a sex change operation. Of course, it does come with a "throttle body flow booster" so maybe it would be worth it!

I've seen one those "things" driving around town. No offense, but it just doesn't look quite right.

Talk about throwing money down a rat hole! If the owner had just spent the same amount on a used C5 he or she would have been many bux ahead! I expect to see this car in a Tiajuana front yard some time in the future being used as a chicken coop.

From the looks of this turd, I'm betting he has a 77-78 mustang body and a cutting torch on stand-by.
From the looks of this thread everyone feels just like I did when I saw this. I figured it would draw some disgust..and a laugh or two.
