Maybe those old psychadelic 70's corvettes and their creators weren't so bad after all! Crazy paint can be fixed, but this...

The front clip is from a 67 Chevelle. I can't see the rear tail light panel to verify if it's from a 66. It's a butcher job at any rate.

You have to understand that there was easy access to psychedelic drugs in the early 70's. This may have seemed like a good idea at the time.

I think they took a 4dr and shortened it. So maybe it wasn't such a bad thing..

Professionally shortened? Like there is a market for that?
