The rear panel was hand lettered, "If You Can Beat Me, You Can Eat Me"....

No idea what became of her or the car....

OK then.....I'm sorry for muddying up this informative thread....

Fresh from Vietnam I crashed with a couple buddies to get my head on straight and find my own place.
Their house was two blocks from the university campus, pretty much party central 3-4 nights a week.
Linda came by a couple times, announced by the rumble out in the street. Attractive blonde, about 5'10", The Vette was a red coupe, no side pipes and I believe aluminum slots.
