My wife has given me the green light to start sprucing up our camper with Vette attire. Check out the spinners I just bought on ebay for the wheels. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=56550 49729&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

I am gonna see if I can put my vette rally's on 1st. If that doesn't work out I am gonna just use the spinners on the camper wheels / beauty rings. More to come I'm sure.

Any other thoughts you guys have let me know I'll see if we can't honor them as well.

I didn't see the parts that make them extend out to chew up "ricers" tires as they go by (like 007 had on an early DB-5)...!!!

A couple of bar stools might look nice.
Just look through all the catologs and you will have it filled in no time.

Vette(s): 1979, 350sb, as my kids affectionately call it "shit brown" Corvette purchased in 1996. 84,000+ miles. Not a show car, but I love her just the same.

HOw about:

One of those couches they make out of the rear quarter of a C5?

A good neon Vette clock would look nice!

And a Vette embossed mirror will help add dimension.

Or how about a crossed flags emblem right in the middle of the floor?

Get a REALLY BIG Vette mural painted on the side of the trailer to match the wheel dimensions so it looks like you're pulling a Vette!

 This is fun!

Thanks guys for the advice! I am making a list and probally will be checking it twice. I do think I should tell you the it is a pull behind. Especially since Joel mentioned sidepipes.
It is a 27' bunkhose with front bedroom.I appreciate your help.

Somehow I knew you were going to say that Joel. Sooo, okay I'll bite. What style & before the duals or after the duals?

I'd go for the side pipes and rig a smoke/flame generator to them!

Then I'd graft a C3 rear clip to it, go for the chrome bumper clip!

Then get a front clip, the same color and style, stick it out of the back window and folks behind you won't know whether you're coming or going!

I'm not even drinkin' yet!
