C5 - 1997-2004 ruined.

the front looks ok as it's basically trying to look like a speedback GT, however the back just doesn't suit it at all.

Looks like it was a Corvette. The wheels are stock (or certainly option) Corvette wheels too I think.

[Mr Snrub]

I don't think you could find a less appropriate set of wheels if you tried

I saw an early Corvette in Hamburg. This mod is to make a retro look I guess.

Seen this morning, poor thing:



A piece of 1970s timewarp "improvement". Furthermore, it appears not to have disintegrated into a pile of iron oxide only from either force of habit, or use of high-tensile paint.

Quite

[Otter Smacker]

It's a Vauxhall/Holden Monaro under all that tat..

[Veeayt]

I like that Fuego (wheel size aside) and that Minor. Nothing wrong with those in my book.
