    New Chevy the "789" ??

     



    Anyone seen this thing. Story is this is going into production sometime in the near future (???) built on a C6 Vette platform, cost arounf $90,000. Interesting idea, really ugly car but maybe one of those urban Legend things that spring up on the net from time to time HuH. Can't imagine anyone producing anything in the car world right now, but who knows.

    It's built by a private co. here in Southern California. You give them your car and they convert it, ugly.

    It is supposed to mimic 1957, 1958 and 1959 Chevys, from front to back. Just shows waht can happen if you let your mind wander unattended.

    Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

    go to n2amotors.com to see the rest of the story.....

    this car probably appeals to the group that lusted for the fiberglass Mercedes roadster replicas built on VW pans...that were in the airports some years back.

    There is also a 62 Corvette conversion that is built on a late model Corvette body. Corvette people should sue.
