Looks like a C6 Corvette with C3 lines. I like it. That is the best rendition I have seen for someone trying to do this.

Just read the little bit on it. That would be some car. I'm sure it would not come cheap either.

I am surprised that Chevrolet didn't pick this design up. You see how well the retro muscle/pony cars are doing...why not do a retro Vette as well.

Plus this would make ppl take more interest in the C3s.

I wonder if the builder is a forum member...and if not why not. I think he could definitely stir up some interest for some kits on the forum alone.

IMO It's what the 2014 C7 "SHOULD" be.
