a few thoughts... I am not a fan of "fakey-doo's."
With that said, it's not a bad looking conversion, but it's no longer a Vette and it never will be a Ferrari.
The Daytona is one of my favourite cars... but I wouldn't build one this way.
And what's up with that last pic? it's supposed to be a GTO, but the proportions are so wrong.

That's quite a bit more than a body kit..I can imagine what they went thru to get a trunk that size on a C4 platform.The last shot looks like one of those Datsun Z car conversions.

Well I have always loved the 70's Ferrari Daytona Spyders, either in kit form or the real deal, but this one looks cheaply done. Sure the body looks ok, but with that said, the proportions are wrong and its easily spotted as a fake to anyone whose a Ferrari or Corvette lover. For the money, you'd think that it would have the seat and dash conversion done too, they do sell repros of them. And what's with those $5 side view mirrors?
