Default The Need For McSpeed

Im sure you guys have already been talking about this car but I havent seen the topic. In the March '03 "Vette" Magazine (pg. 36-39) there is the epitome of what I feel is the perfect Corvette. Chris McDonald owns it, is he among us? If so, beautiful car man!! Its one of the few car's Ive ever seen in a magazine that I havent thought, "its cool, but if they would've just done this it would've been better". The car is freakin' perfect. Have you guys seen/drooled over it yet? :cool:

The best part is I dont have to feel bad if I never get around to building a 'vette. He's done exactly what I would've have...assuming I actually had any money! :lol:

He had a really nice website that went into pretty good detail of his car. You would not believe the car he started with. He did an excellent job. That is one nice car.

OH YEAH!!! That's one fabulous car alright, and I love his username as well..... "69myway", doesn't that about sum it up??? Actually, that car is what I always wanted to do with a chrome bumper, only he beat me to it.

VERY good article and man, what a car! :cool: After checking out his web site and reading the article I was impressed to find that he did most (if not all) of the work HIMSELF even fabricating stuff (like electric headlights!).
