Saw it at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale this year. With the exception of the wheels, I like it....to each their own, I guess
But then I also think that retro 2003/1953 Corvette looks better than any real 53 Corvette (or real C6 Corvette for that matter) ever thought about looking ![]()

I have an old saying I refer to pretty much on a daily basis...
"just because you <u>can</u>, doesn't mean you <u>should</u>. I'd say that applies here. While I can certainly appreciate the craftsmanship and time/labor/$$$ that obviously went into this build, all I can think of when I see it is this: ![]() |

I like it, I don't know if I'd want to actually own one, but I like it.

I like the front, love the back, the side view needs a little work (looks pinched in the mid-section), but absolutely hate the wheels. Needs big-n-littles. And yes, I like the '53 Retro-vette. Course, I'm a dinosaur! ![]()
