the black corvette wagon looks alright...im sure a few more pics from different angles it probably wouldnt anymore.
The C3 wagon isnt my taste...at all.
Are those worth anything more bc they are wagons?

It was a Greenwood or eckler's conversion kit. Seen them in the old hot rod magazines back in the 70's. They are ugly but were a way to make a corvette a little more practical. Load up the back and get some traction.
Some of the other Greenwood and Eckler's C3 body kits were pretty awesome and practical, like big flairs and higher scoops. My 63 is one of those body kits. I like it, others think it's ugly. To each their own.

I think they're worth almost as much as a parts car. The C3 doesn't bug me much.... they made C3's for 14 years, its kinda like watching the Dukes of Hazzard trash yet another car, sure the car is junk now, but hey, pleanty more nice ones out there.... the C2 makes me want to puke.

Thanks for the support.
Its interesting to read some comments that folks have, I wonder if they can take what they dish out.
If you own customs like I do, you don't let that stuff bother you.
Its all about what you like, or don't like.

See there is one of them now. My conversion was done in 1972. Customizing was the thing to do in the 70's. BTW I sold a mint 72 NCRS correct car to buy it, and it definetly wasn't elkhart green
