I had the idea to do this years ago but figured it would never be allowed. I would include boating basics that people forget along with cold drinks. Things like cheap sunglasses, sunscreen, tanning oil, t-shirts, flip-flops. Beer would never fly ;).

Unless this guy has a connection with a wrap company, he paid a lot of $$$ to make his boat that ugly!! Good grief, what was he thinking?

Lol. Yeah they look pretty good as is. Not sure why he felt the need to spend big bucks to ruin it. It is one of the very few 270's built with drop down bolster seats so he dorked up a pretty rare boat.

You do realize that the "explosive Chevys" were found to have been rigged by the 60 minutes type investigative show to explode for their footage/expose.


Actually it was Dateline NBC:

On November 17, 1992, Dateline NBC aired an hour-long investigative report titled "Waiting to Explode," which focused on allegations that General Motors' Rounded-Line Chevrolet C/K-Series pickup trucks exploded upon impact when involved in collisions due to the poor design of the vehicle model's fuel tanks. Dateline '​s footage showed a sample of a low-speed accident in which the fuel tank exploded; the explosion during the crash test would later be discovered to have been rigged by producers with the program, who placed remotely controlled model rocket engines inside the truck's fuel tank to initiate the blast. The program did not disclose the fact that the accident was staged.
GM hired investigators from Failure Analysis Associates (FaAA, now Exponent) to study the footage; FaAA investigators discovered while reviewing the video that smoke had actually started to expel from the fuel tank six frames before the actual impact occurred. Acting on a tip from someone involved with the Dateline crash test, investigators with FaAA searched through 22 junkyards in Indiana before finding the charred wreckage of the GM pickups.[9][10]
It was also later revealed that the Dateline report had been dishonest about the fuel tanks rupturing and the alleged 30 miles per hour (48 km/h) speed at which the collision was conducted. The actual speed was found to be higher than stated, around 40 miles per hour (64 km/h), and after x-ray examination of the fuel tanks from the C/K pickups used in the televised collision, it was found that they had not ruptured and were intact.[11][12] GM subsequently filed an anti-defamation/libel lawsuit against NBC after conducting an extensive investigation. On February 8, 1993, GM conducted a highly publicized point-by-point rebuttal in the Product Exhibit Hall of the General Motors Building in Detroit that lasted nearly two hours after announcing the lawsuit.[13] The lawsuit was settled by NBC that same week, and Dateline co-anchor Jane Pauley read a 3½ minute on-air apology to viewers.
The General Motors lawsuit and the subsequent settlement were arguably the most devastating blows for NBC in a series of reputation damaging incidents during the 1990s and early 2000s. Within NBC, Michael Gartner, who resigned under pressure shortly after the incident, was the source for much of the blame. NBC News President Reuven Frank stated Gartner was hired in 1988, despite having no background in television news, in an attempt to satisfy parent company General Electric, by replacing current journalists with cheaper, less experienced reporters and producers.[14]
In addition to the resignation of the news division's president Gartner, three Dateline NBC producers were dismissed as a result of the incident and the findings of the resulting investigation: executive producer Jeff Diamond, senior producer David Rummel, and Robert Read, producer of the report on the pickups. Michele Gillen, the correspondent involved in the segment, was transferred to NBC's Miami owned-and-operated station WTVJ, where she became an anchor of the station's evening newscasts.

Completely aware. Yet again, America was the victim of the media's in-house drive by. Between that incident, Dan Rather, and Brian Williams, I have to go get my tinfoil hat and question the validity of the moon landing footage.

4- It is a Chevy....repeat step 1 to 4

1- don't expect the 100 ft drive shaft to get you all the way back home too.- Hey Hendrcks motorsports had some extra driveshafts they were throwing out and he figured they were good enough for NASHCAR @ 220 MPH they would be good enough for this beast

2-don't expect to back that thing down the boat ramp without a free removal of the running boards- Reuse the running boards as multiperson skis behind the Topgun

3- seek only deserted 5 lane roads; for left and right turns- Actually your going to need the whole Walmart parking lot

4- It is a Chevy...expect the diesel to blow with all that added weight and for it to be slower than grandma driving a yugo




please...This is all said in good fun, I own a 96 Chevy 1 ton diesel:waffen093::waffen093:

Countach 5000 copy body on custom tube frame chassis, with Corvette LS1 and Porsche 914 transmission professionally built by Renegade Hybrids in Las Vegas. Custom adaptor plate and high torque starter, Painless wiring harness, custom built fuel cell and fuel return system. Runs OBD2, pass key deleted. Vehicle state inspected and titled by the Ohio State Highway Patrol as a 2011 self-assembled vehicle. turn signals, brake lights, horn, charging system work and headlights will turn on. harness is wired into an OEM 2001 Corvette dash installed in the vehicle. The interior needs a lot of work, and the exterior needs some TLC and paint. A lot of time and money was put into making the car start and run like a new car, which is the hardest part of a hand built car. Suspensions are S10 4x4 based and uses custom made axle shafts. I have hundreds of hours to get the car running and driving. I will not give the car away. I have spent over $30k getting the vehicle to this point. If you want a Lambo this is the cheapest way to have one but with the reliability of a late model powertrain that is easy to work on and cheap to take care of. Call me if you are serious. 513 five nine four 0923

If you're looking to get all the attention such as being laughed at, people pointing at you while gasping in disbelief and others getting stupid chills for you at all the car shows, red lights and/or while driving down the street , this is the car for you!

A "viperossa" and "countach copy" and $50,000 asking price (total)..........that is absolute insanity! I'm telling you guys there is reality tv/game show potential just in this thread!

SO would you be interested in a trade for my viperossa on that nice "countach copy" you have there? Best is a Porsche 914 transmission......WTF is that doing in there behind an LS1 powerplant? 914 was the worst, least powerful Porsche ever made!
