Probably the ugliest custom car ever made after Les Dunham creations.

The 70's was a very strange decade.

(1)I've never seen a Corvette go to the Crusher?? All I've seen that were wrecked/junked got parted out to seemingly nothing almost overnight,you never see one in a regular salvage yard(usually a specialty type yard)plus they crush cars to recycle -the metal-.(and a 'Vette is 'Glass) (2) This car is VERY "1978" (as in style...or lack of it!!!)IIRC,I read this..thing..was based on a 1973 model?

This was once in a 'Classic American' magazine. An awesome car.

The only thing I find ugly about this car is the right side of the hood.

That has to be one of the dumbest ways of spending the thick end of forty grand that I can think of ... :/

There were 2 built. One ended up in Australia, the other in in a collection in the USA.

Anyone notice the 'Corvette' badge that falls on Mark Hamill at the start of the movie? It's not even off that year car.

I saw this car at the Oakland Car show after the movie came out and it was really sad. It was after the end of the movie where they tore the car all up. It's fiberglass was all broken up and there were chunks missing and it still had a ton of dirt on it. Don't know why they had it on tour.
