An off road vette? with nitrous no less... :) i've actually seen a picture of one of these before 20 something years ago where someone stuck a mid 70's body vette onto a 4wd truck with larger tires than this picture...

What would I call it??
I'd call it a POS in person, most likely. I've seen many fo-b-fo Vettes...(there is one running around Arlington

) but never unnerstood the draw...just seems like a big waste. I guess there's a reason for it. I'd like it more iffin it were a Vega, and not a Vette that died to assemble that monster...

Hey, Mark..."That thang got a Hemi??"

Now I'm wondering if there is a MONSTER truck Vette out there somewhere.

We've seen just about everything else.

I didn't know all of those were out there. Very different. Thanks for the flashback to 1985 Mark. I guess if they're using wrecked vettes, then the sky's the limit.
