I dont care how many times they go to Le. Mans with the Z0. Corvette will always remind me of Dirk Diggler, the 1. Even the new ones. Most owners I know embrace their heritage rocking excellent vintage mustaches and jewelry. They learned at an early age that gold goes well with a Corvette. I learned this as a kid too. I also learned that you never button your top three buttons when in the presence of a Corvette. You cant let it know that youre not cool. But this Corvette is different. Its like someone shrank it into a little Miata and then turned it into a dune buggy This is Brian Ballinger and Chris Smithss build for the next Gambler 5. Before we get into how great this is, lets get one thing out of the way. This is my least favorite Corvette model. Its the one Barbie drove. Its the Corvette most likely to enjoy the latest Michael Bolton album with its owner. Yet Brian turned it into heavy metal. You see this pull up and you pray hes not here to pick up your daughter. No way Barbie would drive this. This is awesome. I actually dont know that much about Corvettes but I can only assume that the factory gas tank was somewhere near the rear bumper and all the stuff that Brian cut off. I assume thats why there is now a giant fuel cell dominating the back of the car. I also cant help but see the desert racing dune buggy like stucture thats been hiding under all that sports car. Amazing what a set of 3. Corvette. The mustache and mullet completes the look though. Brian and Chris call their creation the Van Damme Vette and it reminds me so much of my Baja Pig The really cool part about their build is that its still on the factory suspension. They just cut away the bodywork instead of putting the wheels outside of it. Brians entering it in the Detroit Gambler next Spring and you can follow the build on Brian Ballingers and Chris Smiths Facebook page. Maybe I should build a V8 powered Corvette I asked why he started with the Corvette and Free was the answer. Oh, and with the one condition that we race it This is how the best racing stories start. I naturally suggested he cage it and run in the Baja 1. Brians response was, Its on my bucket list.
