C2 on C4 frame ? ?

Considering its reputation for squeaks and rattles it seems to me that the C4 body might be a bit under reinforced?
Actually, I was just reading a recent article in one of the magazines that some company is able to put C2 derived body panels and interior on a C4 body?

Local guy had this 65 Corvair that he thought was a bit underpowered. Found a Jaguar V12 engine and put in the front with rear wheel drive. Closing the hood it would hit the induction system from the Jag engine, so he replaced the carb system with 2 injection systems from Buick V-6 engine. No room for air conditioning compressor so he placed a stock GM compressor (same type as on C2/3 Corvettes at the rear axle and drove it with a belt running off the torque converter.

I saw that and it looked very nice, they were using the 63 split window body. Anyone remember what magazine it was in I wanted to take another look and couldn't find it.
