Default Was cruising the Monster Garage site and found this vette....

Hopefully the link will work. Its a 1977 L82 customized vette. What do you think?

Ok...link wont work....lets try it this way.:lol: Not sure if a forum members car or not.



7- by 4-inch hood scoop and 13-inch touring wing. The rims are custom-made Budnik Ozones. The customized stereo has a Pioneer Super Tuner III CD player, Kenwood speakers in the kickboards, a Pioneer Premiere subwoofer with high-output JL Audio speakers in the trunk, and Boston Acoustic speakers in the dash. The 350 small-block engine has Edelbrock Victor Junior heads, an Edelbrock performer intake manifold, Moroso valve covers, a Holley 670 Street Avenger carburetor, 2.5-inch Magnaflow headers with a straight-pipe exhaust, roller rocker arms, HEI with a curve advance kit, and a Mr. Gasket Street Scoop. The transmission is a 350 Turbo-Hydro with a 2800RPM stall converter and a Stage-2 Fairbanks shift kit. Last, she has a 323 rear end. And I have more engine mods and body mods planned in the future for the car as well!

I couldn't get it to work. I'd be interested to see what they could do with a vette! :eek:

Wild looking. I like it except for the hood scoop, a bit too much for me. The paint is cool and the rims look nice. :thumbs:

it needs the blue to carry forward across the marker light t maintain the fender proportions. Loose the wing too. I like the blue and white.

Would like to see the engine compartment and any suspension upgrades, looks impressive - just not my thing though.
