Frame question
What major/minor differences are there between the C2 and the C3 frames? Curious, because I can buy a restored C3 rolling frame pretty cheap. Will a C2 body fit on it? Happy 4th

Not an expert on C2s, but the rear bumper mount area will probably need
to be replaced or custom brackets.
The front ... I thought the horns are the same, but doesn't the
C2 front sway bar mount above the horns ? I guess if you could
live with the sway bar underneath, it might just bolt-up in front.
You'd have to use your C2 frame extension/bumper-nose supports.

Check out the following site: http://www.71corvette.com/frames.html
It has photos and calls out many of the change from 1964-1980.
