What do you drive when you’re a Corvette lover and also a country music star who spends life on the road? A tour bus inspired by the Corvette, of course.OK, so, that"s probably not the first thing that comes to mind, but as highlighted in a recent episode of Jay Leno"s Garage featuring Brad Paisley: where there"s a will, there"s a way. Paisley, a diehard Corvette fan, modeled his tour bus after a 1958 model while pulling every possible detail from the classic car in order to create his dream tour-vehicle.As showcased in a report by Taste of Country, the bus includes everything from Corvette-themed hubcaps to custom ‘Vette-inspired leather seats. And it’s got a little muscle where it counts, too: 515 horsepower and 1,650 lbs-ft. of torque, to be exact.The cost? Oh, only $1.7 million. But you didn"t think a ’58 Corvette-inspired tour bus would come cheap, did you?Chime in with your thoughts on the forum. >>Via [Taste of Country]Tags: 1958 Corvette, Brad Paisley, Classic Corvette, Corvette Features, Custom Corvette, Vintage Corvette
