Amazingly 70s Custom Corvette
This might just be the most 70s Vette ever – at least among those NOT used in Corvette Summer with Mark Hamill.

Dismantling a 1986 Corvette Yields a Unique Hot Rod
Here we have an interesting idea. The owner apparently had T-bucket hot rods before and noted (correctly) that they’re not really long-distance cars. We don’t know how, but he ended up with a 1986 Corvette and proceeded to remove most of the body panels, then construct a Model T-type “trunk” and add an old school…

1976 Corvette Trailer
C3 detractors will say this is the best use for a 1976 Corvette. We say it’s an interesting oddity and, yes, we’re glad this wasn’t an early 70s C3 or even a later L-82, not to mention any mid-year Vette. Per the seller, the use case for this is to tow it to a car…

Corvette Down: Poorly Modified C3
Though this looks like a really bad Fiero custom from some angles, most will notice quickly that it’s not a mid-engine car. Under this is a 1977 Corvette (AKA C3), which one can see in the roof line. The seller claims this has some relation to Hendrick Motorsports, which, among other things, is a NASCAR…

Vettoronado?
We don’t know why this car exists. Perhaps the owner only had access to a 70s Corvette, but always wanted an early 80s Toronado or Riviera? Aside from a lot of “interesting” body mods, this is a stock Corvette. The body mods are extensive, however, and definitely make one ask “WTF?” Click for Craigslist ad…

Triumph Spitfire / C4 Corvette Hybrid
What happens when you put C4 Corvette (the seller says “1983 Corvette”, but there’s no such thing) on a Triumph Spitfire mid-section? Probably a lot of flex, but you also get this feature car. The seller says this project is ready to be assembled, but the whopping two pictures included in the ad don’t show…

Here’s One for Next Year’s Independence Day Parade
What do you get when you combine a C4 Corvette with the VIN from a 1966 Ford wagon and a homemade wood body? This thing. The seller is obviously proud of this oddity and we guess he or she should be. You’ll either love this or hate it, so we don’t need to add much…

Does The World Need A Volvette 1800?
One day, someone looked at his or her 1992 Corvette and said “why not make that into a Volvo 1800 replica?” The rest is history. Strange, strange history. Underneath, this is a claimed fully functional 178K mile Corvette. The pictures really tell the rest of the story. We find it hard to believe anyone will…

Eckler’s 1969 Corvette Shooting Brake
Here we have an incomplete 1969 Corvette Sport Wagon shooting brake project. According to the seller, this is a relatively low mileage Vette. A previous owner started the project in the 70s and passed away before it was completed. The car then went into storage for 30 years or so. There were a few kits…

Super 70s Widebody ‘Vette
Apparently, this is a fairly rare Eckler’s Corvette wide body. There were kits available, but this is one of a small number of cars assembled at the shop. The seller claims it was featured in a number of magazines, and appears to have reasonable proof (unless they all looked exactly the same). What would you…
