There's a Corvetty On Ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Mazda-RX7-198...3A1|240%3A1318

I figured it would be something for everyone to see. Since I couldn't find much info on the forum about it.

Those Aussies took the idea of the poor man's corvette a whole kit car further.

It was a company in Australia that did the conversions, so I'm pretty sure that its a stock 6 port based on what I've read about them.

Even as ugly as it is, you got to admit the work it took to do that body kit. Unique non the less.

I think it's kind of cute.

Looks like it should have an enormous Shriner sticking up from out the sunroof.

Nothing about any of that lines up with itself. It looks like a very confused car.

That should be illegal. I would suggest a flamethrower and a crushing cube machine.
