With money anything is possible.......It would be a better idea to find a project 70 and rebuild it little by little and when your done you'll have a Corvette thats worth something.

If you have lots of time and money and don't particularly care that your creation will be an oddball with relatively low resale, then go for it. It'll be easier in the end to restore a '70.

it just a matter of fiberglass and some metal work... if you do it yourself it's possible... but to pay someone to do it, its not worth it

Keep what you have in it's intended form. It'll be worth more in the long run.

Go to the "for sale" section.
Might find one there or someone who can help locate one.
