Yeah been around since the C6 came out. Its's in the back of alot of Hot Rod magazines. It's not the a 57-59 corvette body. There is no old corvette parts or designs there.
Front of a '57 Belair/Chevy, sides from '58 chevy/impala/belair/biscayne, and taillights and rear panel from a '59 impala.

A little old, but there was a red, one-off 62' C5 vette.

"Youth in Asia"...I don't see anything wrong with that.

my bad. i must have misread the article and thought they were using a modified older style vette body on a newer vetter frame.

either way i still like it.

Damn I got all excited that it would have been an old vette on a C6 chassis

It would be sweet if it was either a '57 Belair body on the C6 chasis or the '69 Impala on the chasis, but not a combination of both.

It's not a one off, they make them to order. Kind of pricey, but I guess if got the money, why not.

My complaint on both cars (other than how hideous the first one is) is how they have to use the modern windshield. The slant of it doesn't look right with the older cars.

I guess I'm too used to the original looks of them.
