I am thinking this was built on a C3 chassis? The paint looks dull and some pretty big panel gaps. Also weird steering wheel position. I don't know about $30K.

yeah, overpriced for me too. I saw an unfinished one for sale in that region a year or two ago for $10,000. It needed paint and some work, typical project type car. I was thinking this might be it.

The price will probably drop as time goes on.

But, you don’t see many c1 kit cars!

 

[BBShark]

Do you know what the chassis is? I haven't heard of a C1 kit car.

No, he just says “newer” no details.

I see the dash looks weird.

Suncoast race cars advertises bodies and will put a factory floor in for you.
That might be what it is.

for example the 63-67 Vette can be purchased with oem floor.

Maybe when I win the lottery.

Saw this at lunch on FB marketplace Norwalk OH. Kind of interesting, could be a good deal or a pile of junk, I don't know. No history mentioned. Probably need experience with corvette molds and assembly to appraise.

“First buyer totally disappeared so this is back on the market.Beautiful Ferrari Daytona replica body manufactured by Rowley Corvette that was located in Massachusetts.This body was manufactured to fit on a 1968-82 corvette and is almost identical to the car used in the Miami Vice television show that debuted 40 years ago. It comes with all the body pieces also has a grill, dash steering wheel and some additional items. Last two pictures are of the one I’m putting together which is not for sale at this time. The ad is for the body only.”


Too many projects too little time (money) or I would have grabbed this. Too little space too.

What is that?

Sort of looks like the old style “hot rod” power antenna install.

I think those used oem glass and trim, from something like a Vega.

I looked that up. Was surprised at how many FI engines and parts were listed. I ran across this, I think these were collectors items 20 years ago, now not so much.
