Well I must say, as goofy and drawn by committee looking as that is, it is still light years better looking than a Corvette.

It looks like they used the dates the car was built for the 1st time...... but not in production.

Love it, but I'd never be allowed to hang it in the living room.

Has anyone ordered one? I was considering but that countdown clock that resets to two hours everytime you go to that site (to make it seem like you only have two hours left to buy) makes me leery; seems duplicitous (but maybe it's just savvy marketing for my uninitiated mind...

I ordered a similar one, actually just finished hanging it up in the living room. When you buy it it comes unframed, I stretched the canvas onto wooden frames that I bought from a local art store. The materials cost me about $40, a pneumatic stapler, canvas pliers and 2 hours later, voila!

I kinda like the impressionism style, and looks more like art. The only downside is that the canvas wraps around the wooden frame and cuts off about 3/4 inch all around so the images don't line up perfectly.

Other than that, not bad for about $80 all done. Note that the canvas is shipped from China and take about 3-4 weeks to arrive.

Cool poster, but half the dates are wrong...if going by first model year, should be 1964, 1974, 1989, 1994, 1998, 2005, 2012.

I was actually surprised when it arrived that they were unframed sheets of canvas, as mentioned by quattroboy. I haven't done anything with mine yet, as it's destined for a new garage I'm about to build (at a new house I'm building). But it makes sense that at the $50-ish price, there would be no frames. Comes rolled up in a tube.

There is an option to buy it framed...I think it is $170 or something. I ordered it that way and hung it in the garage. 7' wide and 30" tall. I think it is the perfect garage art.
