They both ride on a 96 inch wheelbase.
Warvette has a nice ring to it.
Not my vette, a co worker stopped by and it died in my driveway, told him if it takes too long to move it I'm gonna start cutting.
We did eyeball a fire damaged vette the other day with the same silly ideas in our head but it was too far gone to use.
The temptaion is strong.

OK. Now you HAVE to do it!
Which two are you planning on hacking?

If I could find a cheap C4 donor without a melted (yes melted) front suspension I would seriously consider it.
But our original plan is very well sorted by this point and has led itself to much cheaper donors.
We have about 90% of the parts right now, just need to start cutting and welding.

Wartburg body onto Corvette "frame" lots of modifications required since a C4 is not a true body on frame.

Maybe you could put the Wartburg drivetrain into a dead Corvette.

Oh, that's what that car is in the background. This should be fun.

Even without going the corvette route it will be fun, we have some um....interesting things in store for this one.
