Can't say I'm a fan of the grill or wheels, but still...

Thanks, Joe. It's an interesting car; body and mechanical work seem well done.

I much prefer the period wheels that it had in the Hot Rod article. Besides looking out-of-place on the car, the current wheels show off the inadequate brakes.

 

Not a fan of the car but you have to admire the quality and amount of work that went into it. I wonder how many hours went into making those headers.

 

That is a lot of thought/work/time and money!

 

Yeah, but for what?

 

Another person’s vision,work,time and money. At the current bid, I’d suspect they are still deep in the red. It’s not my vision, (or my budget) but if it was engineered correctly and dialed in I’d say that it would be an absolute hoot to drive. Based on the build date, hopefully the builder got twenty plus years to enjoy it.

 

I would've allocated more money to chassis work and less money to bling bling. 3.06 pegleg, etc.

 

Wonder how this car would do at Nashville Speedway in a few weeks with those rubber bands as tires.............

 

Probably, pretty well. Less sidewall equals less deflection equals faster through turns.

 

The Seller could have saved a lot of time and $$$ by just buying a 2021 Corvette.

 

If one is a fan of the "transformers" styling.

And frankly, ALL of us here would save a lot of time and money just buying a new performance car. What's your point? Sometimes it's the journey, not the destination, that matters.

 

Considering that the car was built in the 90's and the seller bought it in 2011 that would have required a time machine.

 

Exactly...

 

I wonder if Joe were presented with a 2022 Corvette, all stock, but, when you pushed the on button, it made the transformers noise every time, would he drive it.

 

If I were presented with a new Vette, I'd sell it and buy the cars I really wanted.

 

I don’t doubt your claim, but I do think that you’d wring it out for at least a day before listing. Because,,well you know!😅

 

I admire the vision. A rear engined F-body sounds fun.
The styling is subjective but well done for sure.

This angle kinda reminds me of an old charger.
