Not a Corvette, but interesting. $12K. Search Ohio marketplace.

"This is the RCR SLC rolling chassis that was bodied as a McLaren P1 in the Need For Speed movie. This chassis is in good condition and was not wrecked. The body is long gone (McLaren lawyers I guess), but the chassis is the only way you're gonna get one of these sweet RCR chassis without getting a whole car. Retains stock wheelbase and track width as the SLC. Has secondary hydraulic rear brake system for drifting. Had good radiator, pedals, shifter for Porsche transaxle, and was set up for an LS V8. Freaking nice shocks and electric assist power steering. Easy to bolt on any roll or mounting structure to this chassis and I see no cracks or bent tubing. It is a bit dirty and has some spray can black paint to hide the shiny aluminum, but would clean up very fast with a pressure washer. I took this on trade and frankly have no time to build anything right now. The chassis is rather easy to shrink or stretch the wheel base, so it would be useable for a myriad of kit car bodies. This is hell of a find, don't expect to find another one. Yes, it's dirty from sitting since the movie, but it's a damn good base. Might consider a part trade towards a Ducati or MV Agusta sport bike. "

Brakes are Wilwoods, looks nice, $36K is too close to C8 price for me.
 
This looks like it isn't too bad a deal.

Tilt front and flared fenders, core hard top that will need plexiglass but one incl., complete chassie w posi diff w bb caps, roller wheels. have collected many components needed to put this together over the years included. A built and fresh 454, ceramic headers, core M21 4 spd w shifter and bell, new wiring harness in the box, OEM side pipes, 4 core alum radiator, proper flares, gills to make it look like a 66, nice instrument cluster and decent leather seats, new gas tank setup and 4 new calipers. more... Please get with me and we can talk on the phone If serious.

 
That's a good deal. No more projects for me though.
Yup, I have too many projects and too little time too.

I've been looking at newer corvettes and the best deal right now is to forget about used and buy new. :)

We'll see, hopefully Russia won't go nuclear.
 
Price dropped to $27K a couple of weeks ago. I almost planned to drive the 5 hours. But, thinking next car should have a warranty.

Monte Carlo frame? I wonder if he made the frame smaller or the body bigger?

The side view looks fairly normal to me (at first glance), so he either shortened it or the lady is wrong or it fit with trimming. Not sure. I see one year the Monte was 108".

The 1960 Chevrolet Corvette C1 measures 72.80 inches in width, The 1960 Chevrolet Corvette C1 measures 177.20 inches in length, and has a wheelbase of 102.00 inches
