Here’s a view from the inside back area since there’s not one in the article.



Out of all the chopped up C3s that pop up on here I don’t actually hate this one too much. I think the rear “windows” need some RPO TJ2 chrome trim though.

If I wanted to ruin a Vette a little less...I would have added another foot to the frame and put rear bucket seats (and put the gas tank in place of the spare )...but I'm a rookie.

saw a video of this car driving, it has hydraulics too, if anyone cares, and now that I see the interior, not very "limo-like".
