Vette(s): 1970 stingray, t-top, mulsanne blue with black interior, 406 ci with 444 hp, racing suspension, hooker headers/sidepipes - SOLD :(

so...who would say it'd be possible to take the C3 body off and drop it onto a C6 frame...or if not, to put a C6 engine, transmission, steering, and brakes onto a C3?

Anything is possible.  Financially feasible?  Probably not.  There are several aftermarket frame mfg that are building frames for our c3 bodies and they are advertising in the magazines.  They incorporate c5/c4 suspensions and drive train components.  That would be more reasonable route.

With enought time and cash, you can do anything.  But I agree, the upgrades to the C3 will be a better way to go.

Sarge, that is one classy chassie.

A lot could be done with that, including a C3 body.

There is also philadelphia motorsports.  I think thats the name of them.  I just saw them in the back of corvette fever.  They do chassis as well as jim Meyer.
