Not keen on the rest of the car, but the roofline is really nice. That was harder to than all of the rest of the car combined. (not the corvette - I'm talking about the 911).

That roofline/windshield angle on a nice flat black coupe - mmmm....nice....

Those pictures were taken at Mid America Motor Works, in Effingham, Illinois--not far from here.

MAMW bought tweeks.com a few years ago, and were for a time competitors with Pelican. I went to the last "Funfest for Porsche" in 2005. Shortly thereafter, the got out of the Porsche parts business, though the do still do a lot of Corvette stuff.

I think that is a "Avalanche" from the late/mid 80's.
"Vanalla Ice" had one with door rakes ala Testarossa
