Tried searching, so as to avoid a re-post slagging-off, but came up with nothing, so here goes.

These guys take a stock C6 and erm, do things to it.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I was left a little open-mouthed.

I can see these being a love it or hate it thing, but I'm with you - very attractive end result! I think it's the thought of how it got there that's a bit, er, weird.

[ZR1cliff]

I Love it.

I'm inclined to suggest that if you wanted a Thunderbird you should buy a Thunderbird. What a waste of a Corvette.

Have you seen those panel gaps!!

So you're telling me that looks like a Ford Mitch?

[z06tim]

Looks more like a Chevy Bel Air amongst other GM styling cues.

Maybe I'm being unfair to a Thunderbird. A needless concoction of retro styling cues would be more appropriate. There isn't a fresh line in sight. The 'Anteros' on their website is the one that I find truly disturbing though.

Looks suspiciously that whilst you don't like it I guess there is enough that do.

Not my cup of tea, but I do respect the great skill involved in creating something like that.

Needless concoction I can more go with. There's no way that the vertical lines and shoebox with fins styling of the 57 TriChev are ever and I mean EVER going to work with the horizontal curves and flying fins and teardrops of the 59 Impala. The one design of theirs I actually do find more worthy is the Buick-alike Wildcat, which at least appears to be followed through from start to finish using the same styling cues. The worst surely has to be the one which wants to be both a 55 TriChevy and a 61 Impala.

seems a bit pointless to me, why not just buy an original one, its not like they are super rare and therefore mega expensive.

[mitch_]

The cars this thing is attempting to copy aren't so hard to find that you couldn't just buy an original. As for skill I'd reserve judgement till you see one in the flesh. Looking at the gap around the filler door it looks like you could take the fuel cap off without opening the door to get to it.

i think they are intresting.

i guess these guys are trying to give the retro look but with all the modern stuff we like.

Cheers
