Oh come on Cline... That is a bit harsh.

I was thinking more like this...

Some people are into that and that is OK! :thumbsup:

(I do think Kim tries a bit too hard however).

In the immortal words of Sir Mix-a-lot... "Baby got back!".

I hate to

but Mrs. West's booty is at least nice and round. The Corvette lights are supposed to be round as well. It took me a while to find a butt that was resembled the Camaro, wide, flat, and something you don't want to stuck behind haveing to watch.

The 370z rev match system works perfectly from what I've read.

I still think it looks funny. Granted I think the new camaro looks awful and the new corvette seems to be designed by the same person.

It works well, but who would want that? At least it can be turned off.

Well, I figured it out. The problem is the C7 has rear quarter windows. Corvettes have never had rear quarter windows... no wonder we're all confused.

Now whether this styling gaffe spells doom for the Corvette remains to be seen. But the early Mustang fastbacks didn't have rear quarter windows, and then

Just saying.

The back of it is awful.

I have yet to see one in person, but the first thing that jumped out at me is the Firebird emblem for a true replica F-body rear end. I assume that is the same pair of flags that adorned previous generation Corvettes, just at a 90 degree angle to each other?

Definitely looks better in person than in pictures. I saw one in person last night and it looked ok.

Art as much as you so want a 1978 King Cobra with that screaming 122hp 302V8, I was always in favor of just the "regular" Cobra II for some reason:

Always like the tastful Ghia for some reason.

Absolutely. Clearly the Ghia version was the most desirable one of that era, no doubt.

I think its something about the headlights... Really effective high beams?

It is more fun scrolling down the page to get to the latest post than normal. Starts with shock, then some new body work one is not sure the dimensions are what you would prefer but there are so many things right about it that you would have so "OK" if it was given to you. Then we move into some much under appreciated classics that we have almost forgotten. I'm very poetic this morning.

Chuck & Cline: Bravo!

To complete the hijacking of this thread to talk about '70s Fords, let's check in on the 3rd Angel. You remember, the smart, sensible one with mad driving skills:
