When Corvette meant style


Bahia Mission Bay Corvette show, and what is the difference between all of these?


I do believe the dealership they were purchased at. Other than that, they all seem to be just garaged and cleaned factory stock corvettes that a lot of people bought in order to bring to a show to compare who does a better detailing job. It must be me, I must not get the point in buying the same car as everybody else in my club, like the Miata, Corvette, PT Cruiser, etc etc, club members.

" Gee Bob, is that a Z06?"
" Yup."
" Why, I've got one just like it!"
" With the LT4 and a 6 spd?"
" Exactly."

Just as unsual in person as it was in the magazines




A Spawn fan and an airbrush artist... you must see the work this guy's done!




From Corona, and in San Diego for both Corvette shows this weekend, he airbrushed this car after he and his wife first stripped all the factory paint off. Now that is prep work!
http://www.airheadkustoms.com/ In upcoming work, there is a 69 Coronet, a 71 Roadrunner, and a 72 Charger. http://www.airheadkustoms.com/muscle.html the Road Runner is a 440 4 spd, and for sale... so get ahold of Jason now to give input into how it turns out!

You can bet I'm crazy over the Mopars that will be fixed up by Jason.
This job would cost you around 8-9 thou from Airhead Kustoms, about 1/2 what other shops will charge you. That's a shop with a reputation to build on value and quality. Keep in mind that just the paint and materials are going to run close to 2 thou.

Wow. I'd rather have one of these custom vettes. I think I'd be a little uncomfortable at a corvette show if I drove one of these in, all the vette owners would be a little snarky that you spent more than they did.

The 69 vette I restored the spring of 06.

The engine had never been apart, and the last owner couldn't figure why is ran like a turd, or was so noisy. The passenger side exhaust manifold broke in two. Sweet car.
