thats all the pics i have so far if any one has any suggestion on any thing else on he car post it the rims are still undecided the interior is tan and dats it

peaz ... vic

open for comments anything pleazz someone respond constructive critisizem anything ok i see how it is j/k

This is a great kit. I've built 4 of them so far. And each one was fun.

What interior are you using for it? Are you modifying the race interior, or using a Z0-6 or other Vette interior.

The only thing I'd suggest is do something different with the front grille. The racing grill looks out of place on a street car.

cant wait to see this one done...

Hello! that will surley be sweet=P
I am bulidng a car with the C5-r suspension and engin and som other stuf from it... but i have the corvette hardtop '99 body and interior;)

hey cad guy i am using the zo-6 interior and you probably saw the gren but its gona also be convertible and the top isnt gonna be down its just gonna be that beige kens fuzzy fur stuff . picked some up at the lhs and the interiors gonna be kens fuzzy fur black valor

cant wait to see this one done...

believe me its gon be a tight one

Im having a hard time feeling a corvette in lime green.

youll like it when its done

you gonna have a cf on it i think that would really go good on it...

where on it what part

you gonna have a cf on it i think that would really go good on it...

I totally agree. Carbon Fiber here and there (Spoiler, Mirrors, Hood ect) would accent the green alot better. Or maybe a two tone with black? But thats just me :2cents:

im not gonna have a spoiler the whole underside of the chassis is cf

looking good so far. I actually did the same project (c5-r to street). The biggest pain by far was making the interior look 'street' . I wish you luck and (not that I'm all that good...) but if you have any questions...don't hesitate.

It was probably my most fun build for me. Please keep us posted...Anyone who can appreciate a good vette is kewl with me!
