Default Re: Would like to make a 87 B/M vette.....Any ideas?

Ah...patience...I know but I have vette fever right now. Anyway thanks for not leaving me out there. The paint is a photoshop job from a forum member on a corvette forum. Here are some other ideas he came up with...




The engine runs really great so I wont be touching that yet. The car has some modifications to it and will run a mid 13 on a street tire. What I am looking for is some advice on what Motion may of done to a C4 if they had done one. Would the Corvette emblem on the rear stayed? Maybe replaced by GT lettering? How about the gas door and emblem? Replaced by a LeMans Cap? the wheels I am leaning towards and vintage wheel 17x11 rears with 315/35/17 and 17x9 fronts with 275/40/17.


It is very hard to stay time specific and still get the look I want with a 80's car.I want 1970 visual muscle in a 1987 package without the 80's tackiness. I am really tired of looking at non modified corvettes. I find them so boring.

I would leave it alone and when you're ready to build some more vintage, then put your money into a car in the MP time period.
