Default Is this a C6? Maybe? Maybe not?

At first glance you might say yes...but wait for it......

Okay, maybe not..





I do have to say I am very impressed with how the 74 turned out even though I am not a fan of mixing years...

That looks pretty nice. I'd like to see the interior.

I'd like to see more pics.

Looks like someone attached the nose and rear end of a C6 to a C3.

This one gets a B+ for effort. I'm sure a lot of work went in to that. It is probably a one off that someone spent a lot of time, money and effort on. Frankly, it looks better than some of the rebodied commercially available cars I've seen for Corvette body kits. I actually kind of like it.

I'd give the guy an "A" for effort but I wouldn't want it.

Nothing against C3 owners, but the interior just doesn't come close to a C6!

Hmmmm, not for me, looks like the trunk is going to fall off anytime, but I have to agree it was well done and you can see a lot of time and effort was put in to it. A+ for effort.

I think the front end looks pretty dang good on it. The rear end, not so much.
