Anything is possible if you throw enough money at it.  Wheelbases are different and the C5/C6 bodies are wider than a C3.

It might be easier to adapt the C5 parts to a C3 chassis.  Or use C4 rear suspension because of the transaxle.  And still a LOT of time and money, but very cool!

The local Vette expert here has done several conversions of C1 and C2 bodies on C4 chassis. The workmanship is excellent. They look better than factory built.
