03 modified to 53 Retro Look

[Blade]

Here are a couple of pictures of a 53 Retro. It was a 50th with the body replaced by a 53-type body. It was AE red with shale interior. At Vettes on the Rockies. About $40K for the modification.

Now that is nice. I'm a C3 kinda guy and wouldn't spend the money it cost to buy a C5, but that I would. Maybe GM could learn from Ford and there baby bird.
That is the best looking C5 I've ever seen.

Boy do I wish Corvette would follow that trend of going Retro with designs for a few years.

But, its been their track history to be cutting edge and futuristic with each series of vettes.
Just the opposite.

Great pics

Wow...

This Corvette really grows on you.

Wish Chevy had taken a tip from Ford and the retro T-Bird and had done something like this for the 50th AE.

here it is in white: it was actually a proposed 50th car by GM...once again they fail to make something good looking.

Try those pictures again.


How did the drivers license test go for you?

Remember, Fords retro Bird was a flop and has been discontinued. Perhaps it is because it was overpriced and underpowered.

I agree. :cry


I like the Ruby Red color better than the white, but white would have been the correct color.
