It's FAR from a one of a kind. A good number of these things were built. It figures it's in Branson. It's only 30 minutes from me, so if anyone wants me to look at it for them, let me know!

......and yes, I think it's butt-ugly!.

I figured this would be some sick humor to look at so I put it up. I just got it off a gun forum that I look at a lot. (glocktalk.com)

Someone spent a ton of money on this car. The work looks to be of good quality.

The interior needs a shave.

No where near as many as Mr. Vaughn (the well-known guy) had hoped, I'm sure.

I dont know. There is something about it that does not appeal to me. I have seen other vette conversions that I would not mind owning. But I there is something on this one that is just off a little bit.

I have actually seen this car in person. It was or still is in a car museum in Branson. Great quality workmanship, but who (besides current owner) would want it?

Thats further proof that just because you can do something, it doesnt mean that you should do it.

I'm not sure that a C3 is in the category of a Series 1 Jag E-Type- a design that absolutely cannot be improved, by most knowledgeable opinions- but I have seen precious few mods on the '68-'82 Vettes that could be considered improvements. And the more, the worse. I think this is a case in point. Bill Mitchell was no design slouch, as this forum would attest.

The only thing that looks good on that car is the engine. That's the only thing this guy didn't screw up. The front grill and rear bumper are hideous.
