check out this crazy thing :odd: very good job i must say



The 789 gets its name from the melding of design cues from the 1957, 1958, and 1959 Chevrolet models. The headlights and nose are most similar to the 57 Chevy, while the mid-section and interior are much like the 58, and the rear and tailfins are styled after the 59.

The vehicle is built on a 2005-2007 Corvette C6 chassis, and shares the stock C6's 400 hp engine as well.
 
It actually looks really integrated and good; much better than any of the retro Vette bodies they sell.
 
Went home this past weekend and we went to the mall in Panama City, FL. There happened to be a show and I had the camera with me. Didn't get very many, not enough light.
I don't go to car shows nearly as much as I used to anymore :(.

Nice the 350D would make an ideal back-up body for me really, but i dont think i can afford it yet!

how much did you USM lens cost, they seem to be very expensive still :ouch:

Yes they are. I paid the retail price a year or so ago, $799.00

I think they are down a couple hundred less now. But, a very good lens. Some people even say they are about "L" quality.
 
Awesome pics speedy 👍!
 
Oh man, those pictures are all sweet 👍 +rep
 
The Elanor stang, black stang, and 302 stang are hot.
 
Monte Carlo, mid 80's, I'm guessing either a 84 or 85, model if I'm not mistaken. I love those cars.
 
That is seriously one of the nicest cars I've ever seen, so well done and very clean.
