I dont know if there is a "conversion" however there is a company that is selling C1 bodies that you can use any drivetrain that you want under it. I have no idea who is making the bodies but I have seen a few and they are pretty nice. You should be able to Google it.
There is another option. There is a dealership here in town that is selling a 59 vette that you order like a new car. You pick the drivetrain, wheels, paint, options etc, just like buying a new car. I have not seen the vette but have seen the 69 Camaro that they are selling the same way and it looked to be a pretty nice car. It had a LS-1 Auto in it. They (vette or camaro) is running around 80K pretty decked out. You get a new car warrenty and can even finance it if you really wanted to.
There's a guy who adapted a C2 body to his C4, minus the cab. I've never seen a C4/C1 done though. Most people just rob the C4 of it's suspension and drivetrain and then toss the rest.
It depends on the width of wheel that you want,but it's pretty easy to put
C-4 stuff under a c-3.(Anything actually)
I'm runnin 12"wides in the rear and 9.5" in the front.A different offset wheel would take little or no flare.:thumbsup:
I have been asked to post more pictures of RAYzr-1, our prototype custom C2
but can't seem to get photos to load...sorry but i have a hard time even spelling compooter:laughing: ...will keep trying and thanks for the interest...Dave:cheers:
I like the C2/C4 idea too, the roof doesn't look entirely right. I guess that makes it stand out, though.
