Looks like one of the better retro conversions out there. Lots of cash, but would be unique.

Looks good but I wouldn't do it to my C5. I like the C5 styling better than any previous or newer generation. I would however like to have a '66 Vert in blue or yellow to park alongside mine.

Sorry guys and gals, but I do like this.
There is one or two in the DFW area. They are really nice.
They bought the C5 from salvage (it actualy took two C5's to do one of these as the cars were for donor frame, the othere for donor interior, ect.).
Overall the costs (to build a complete car) ran, if I recall correctly) in the $50K area.
Not to bad for the end product.
