I was in Rome, NY a few days ago, and we went by this store and sitting in the parking lot is a red ZO6...but it had a convertible top...and i immidiatly told myself ( and my girlfriend) that is isnt possible to have a Z06 convertible. But it had all the badges and normal signs of a Z06...the 405 Hp badge the side vents the wheels...etc.
So is it a custom Z06 convertible..or is it some moron that bought all the badges and vents to make himself look kool??? something to ponder if your bored

Anyone could do a chop job. Of course that would change the rigidity of the car, but you are right that they do not make that car in a convertable

Yeah, I'm sure it was a fake. GM has all of those parts to convert a convertible to a Z06 look-alike. If you've got the cash, you can do whatever you want :( .

Why don't you post something inteligent, instead wandering through the boards and trying to start shit? It was a valid thread until you whored on in...
You could always bring your pos to KC, and we'll settle is here, but oh that's right, you don't have a vehicle. That is unless you're just on this board to cause trouble, in which case you'll be banded by a moderator as soon as they see your no knowledge posts. Keep your close-minded bitchin to yourself. Nobody asked you...

Yep I've got that same magazine, July 2002 issue. You can have it with the sports bar on back and the removable hard top or u can have it like a true roadster. Says it takes 4 weeks from start to finish.

Not on the C5's, the Vert, FRC, and Coupe are all just a rigid as the other. Score one for GM's hydro-formed frame rails. :)

Consider the concept of a Z06 converted to a ragtop, been done. Checnk out http://www.hashmarks.com/2002Z06/4sale/4saleflyer.htm and http://www.burkecorvettes.com/. :)
Some corvette owners want to "a convertible Z06" without buying the ragtop and doing a wad of mods to build a look alike. As far as the fake stuff, each vette owner is unique and as such does what they like to the vette for enjoyment. Just because you see a convertibel Z06 don't automatically "ASSUME" it is some Z06 wannabe. How many of you have installed the rear brake dust to your FRC's. Just a thought. :cool:
