In a fit of C3 Enthusiasm, I created a website that lets you build your own Virtual C3 with custom parts. It sounded like a fun thing to do and I used it as an opportunity to learn more ASP web development. Here is the site: http://www.corvettefaq.com/virtualc3/default.asp but first read on....

OK, I was really gung-ho about this project a few weeks ago and jammed on it to get it done ASAP cause the idea sounded so cool. I finished most of the basics of the game, but now I just need help collecting parts and prices. The game is also built to support pictures which I haven't got around to collecting. And a few of the links aren't hooked up completely yet (like the "share your c3 with friends to earn more money" feature) :)

I didn't want to "release" it unfinished, but my enthusiasm has waned a bit mostly because I don't know what parts should be listed for "sale" in certain areas. So if you think its cool and you'd like to contribute to the project, I am accepting submissions for parts lists. :) Also images to go along with parts if you have them.

And it could probably be one of those projects thats never finished, like our Vettes - so any other suggestions you have would be most appreciated. Oh, and I have no desire to make any $ with this site or anything, just a fun thing to kill some time and have some fun.

And no making fun of my web design skills. I enjoy ASP and SQL programming, but have little interest in graphic design. :)
thanks

I like it! would be cool if you could see your creation, you should put hooker headers + sidepipes on there.

 

Wow, this is a lot of fun! Cause I can just make my dream car and say "look at what i got!"

Just a few questions though:
Does it just have nothing in it? No engine, tranny, seats, etc?

Do I need to buy a top for my 'vert?

Should I assume everything is stock?


Edit: Was just thinking, how 'bout more specs on the stuff for sale. Cause I bought the GM LS6 and i'm assuming it's the '02 ZO6 engine, but i'm not really sure.

Nice work Terry. I can spend $$ at your site now as easy as I spend on my real car! Just doesn't hit the wallet as hard :lol: .

A 500hp 427sbc for $9000 would be a cool option. For exhaust, Headers w/ sidepipes, or dual exhaust with performance mufflers. How about a TKO 5spd or Tremec T56 6spd for $2000 would be a cool option also.

Great idea.

 

Yep, needs that 434", 600 hp small block :D:D

Other than that looking good!

 

Thanks for checking it out guys and for the suggestions. I plan to add more stuff and of course pics, but I don't know how feasible it would be to add overall car pics (with everything put together).

My original intention was to make something similar to the old game Street Rod. If you've never played that (or Street Rod 2) before, check them out (and download) here: http://www.classic-trash.com/gameinfo.php?id=498 Should work OK on all PCs, but the graphics are pretty bad, relative to todays standards. But its an ULTIMATE classic, sure to please anyone into fixing up AND RACING cars.
enjoy
