Check out this "modified" Corvette

Quote:

This car was built by N2A motors (No Two Alike). Cost is $4,000 over the cost of a new Corvette C6 (MSRP $44,000). Unbelievable! The company is planning a production run of about 100 vehicles. It sits on a Corvette C6 chassis, front styled like a 57 Chevy, side like a 58, rear like a 59. Hence the designation '789'.

i thought you guys would get a kick outta it.

Neat but kind of strange looking. It would look alot better as a single color I think, right now it looks like someone stuck a black '57 Chevy front end on a teal 58/59 mutant.

Those mirrors stick out like a sore thumb. They don't go with the car at all. I believe they are the last body corvette mirrors.

I don't like the rear end or the side mirrors. But i've always liked the front end of 57's. Have any of you seen the '53 vette recreations?

Interesting. Guess you can't fault them for trying something different.

I kinda like the rear on this C5 as a retro 1962. Just fits better IMO.

Those c5 mirrors have to go... it makes that car look like *** too. Looks like they just threw them on there at the end because it was all they had.

I kinda like it, just seems like they shoulda used a less expensive platform to make the price more appealing

Almost neat, but too much stuff going on. 789 sucks. Pick one, maybe two and stick with it. Is it a Vette? A BelAir? An impala?

Being the antithesis of a chevy fan that I am, it surprises me to say that I think its pretty slick. Gotta give props to the guys who designed it. I think the 57 front end should be stock on all Corvettes. That is, if you would want one of those POS's.
