If you move your mouse arrow over to the picture, it informs you that it is a Chevrolet Corvette. What a waste, I wonder what kind of punishment the rear end has suffered? Roge L. Gibbons

OOPS, I took a peek at the rear end, it seems to have suffered the same pitiful fate, sorry. Roger L. Gibbons

That sure is a huge improvement over those out of style OEM bumpers. If I was only good enough to make mine look like that. :rolleyes:

"THIS IS A CUSTOM 7O VETTE BY ECKLER MOTION ..."

Why is it that all the "customizers" must have all those "creative" ideas to replace the original headlights? What's wrong with the original set-up? They are so cool! :mad

"has been stored for 22 years"
I would keep it where no one could see it also

-=-------=-------=-------=-------=-------=-------=-------=-------=------
Amazing how after being stored for 22 years it : "STILL DRIVES LIKE NEW! "

You know, we all see that alot and its totally a crock of shi*. :rolleyes: Cars just don't run perfect after being stored! Case in point: at the Pace Car Reunion last Oct. the only official Indy Pace Car (that lead the actual race) that would run was the 1995. The others had "... been in storage so long that they won't run." That's the 1978, the '86 and even '98. (The '98 may have had another excuse but we didn't learn of it)

But, heck, its not like this guy invented that expression. I guess it's buyer beware.

Good luck dude!

:seeya I have to agree...I would store it for another22 years! :yesnod: I also agree it doesn't look too bad from the side. But I would have to redo the front and rear of the car :yesnod:
