Can i fit??
Hi guys! Looking at buying a C3 Corvette for my retirement gift to myself. The only problem is i'm 6'3 300lbs. Will i fit in a C3? I currently have a 2018 C7 and its a little cramped but not bad. Thoughts?

I’m 6”4’, 205 lbs and I fit in my 72 coupe better than the 2015 I owned for awhile. I wouldn’t want up make a long trip in it but around town driving is fine.

Hey Eddie, I'm 6'2" / 220. I fit but............you'll want tilt for sure; and not a 16" steering wheel like in the '68's and possibly others - change to a 14" if needed. Try one on for size! Best, Paul

Depends on where that weight is, seriously. I’m 5-10” and 220 with most of the excess around the middle. And the non-tilt and large wheel in my ‘71 is a bitch getting in/out. But once in I’m fine, and my smaller legs feet don’t have much issue with the close pedals.
