Strange question
Has anyone here tried to put a C3 body on a C5 chassis? I know that the C5's are longer and wider by a few inches but is it or would it be possible. I was offered a swingin deal on a complete chassis with motor and 6 speed tranny still installed. I've got a pretty good 81 body or even my screwd up pace car that I could use. What do you think?

you are probably best off using one of these frames that a C3 body will bolt on to and use your drivetrain on it
