  • This is the baddest, meanest C3 Corvette build out there! "Rambo" is a radically flared LS6 Swapped pro touring machine... Weighing in at only 2,700 pounds and putting down over 410 wheel horsepower, you better believe this car RIPS! So sit back and enjoy the ride...

    Ive had several corvettes. Always been a big fan of them. Ive had the Bloomington Gold one and another one that's almost to that caliper. Always looked at them and I sold the 1960 and still have a 1967 big block. I ve had the car since 1983 and 1996 I completely restored it to a beauty. I seemed to never drive them as they were to nice. I bought a 2015 z06 and I told myself never again will I just look at them. I burn the fricken track and roads up in the z06. Which now I'm driving the old one like it should be driven. Im having a blast and not looking at it like a piece of fine glass. I love what you've done and driving it like you stole it. So you guys that have one no matter how nice it is drive it.

    I love the logo on the car that says built to be thrashed. I'm so tired of seeing beautiful, vintage American muscle cars turned into trailer queens that are more for showing off and investment opportunities.That Vette looks sweet and badass at the same time and I'm sure is a blast to drive. Get in, buckle up, and get it on!
