Chevrolet C6 "Trail Boss" Offers Fun at an Affordable Price

If you’re looking for a unique vehicle that promises excitement, this Chevrolet C6 outfitted with 33-inch all-terrain tires might be just what you need. Priced at $23,000, this vehicle, dubbed the "Corvette Trail Boss," brings a playful element to car ownership, especially if your goal is to grab attention at gas stations or show off your donut-making skills.

While a quarter-million-dollar supercar like a Lamborghini Huracan Sterrato or a Porsche 911 Dakar could provide similar thrills, this custom Corvette is capable of kicking up dirt and making impressive sounds at a fraction of the cost. In fact, it might even compete with those high-end off-road machines when it comes to performance in rugged terrains like Johnson Valley, not to mention its potential to turn heads at car meets.

This attention-grabbing vehicle was highlighted in a recent Facebook Marketplace listing that circulated among our editorial team. Although it’s entertaining, you might want to avoid clicking the link if colleagues or family are watching, as the accompanying images could spark some awkward moments. However, if there’s any car that pairs well with shorts and boots, it’s definitely this lifted Corvette.

The car’s journey as a safari-style build has been shared through the owner’s Instagram and YouTube channel. According to the ad, “I sold it to a YouTuber back in March, then bought it back. After running a giveaway, the winner opted for the cash instead, so now it’s up for sale again.”

Here are a few highlights from its time with the YouTuber:

While the vehicle’s ball joints and wheel bearings have undoubtedly been tested, the remote-reservoir Fox shocks should offer a decent ride over uneven surfaces. The "Trail Boss" decal on the rear gives it that perfect finishing touch. For those wanting to amplify the quirky design, adding KC lights atop the windshield or creative graphics could transform it into an even bigger showstopper.

Additionally, the manual transmission adds to its appeal for car enthusiasts.

Although I might have chosen a different path for a 50,000-mile C6, I admire the owner’s creativity and the lighthearted spirit behind this build.

For a closer look, here’s another video that provides insight into the vehicle’s underside, which surprisingly doesn’t seem too bad, especially in a project that involves a Sawzall.
