:roflblack:.....Gene, nice pic, however that is the real trunk …. if you look a bit further in the Corvette pic catalog you will find the pretty large cavity at the nose of the Corvette they call a Frunk …… Thanks for looking … Mike :ohyea:

My Thread is about the use of the term " FRUNK " as it relates to statements made by GM ….. Did VW also say the Beatle, has a FRUNK, I remember when the VW first arrived in the USA, VW never referred to the Beatle having a FRUNK ….. nice pic tho ….. thanks, … Mike :ohyea:

I read about the new Corvette a couple of days ago. And, yup, they refer to the storage in the front as a FRUNK. It is claimed to have enough room for a standard airline carry-on bag. I had never heard of the term, frunk until I got the Spyder. Seems like we are trendsetters..... :ohyea: Jim

I remember that well. I bought a brand new 1968. It cost me a full $1,688 bucks. People used to make comments about the engine in the back and its distinctive sound as well as hey...there's no engine in the front.

The term Frunk may or may not have originated with the Spyder community but I do know there is more than one person that is active in both groups. IE there are a number of GM folks that own Spyders and even more Corvette owners that do.
