Cucv/c5 vett

[JerseyHick]

Just wanted to share.
Not my build. Spotted this on net, not sure if you guys seen this one.
Says CUCV body on C5 corvette chassis. Even seems to have vett dash and seats.
I know FAR from military. But still pretty sweet.

That thing has been for sale on eBay forever. I think it looks sweet on the outside but the inside is just terrible.

It's been on here a few times. I don't know what this guy was thinking. It's deftly engineered but what a wacky combo.

I don't know what this guy was thinking.

I'm guessing:

I have a totaled Vette body that I still have a good chassis from. What could I skin it with cheaply that would go with a "rat rod" motif.

That just ain't right.

So he ook a vette and gave it the aerodynamics of a dishwasher.... honestly wonder how it handles if it still has the vette suspension.

 

[patracy]

Yeah, it's on a vette chassis. Won't handle as good as a vette though.

I just keep imagining the look on Jonny-Import-Tuners face. When he realizes he just got smoked at a red light, by an old army truck... Priceless!

A 6.5L in a 'Vette?!?? WT...

Soooo,
That's what the Truck Looks Like On A Car Frame.....Check out a Corvette with the Trucks Engine inside the Car Frame.. A guy named ProCycle who is a Diesel Technician has a build he has been working on for a few years on dieselplace.com. It's a 6.5L in a 1980 Corvette, w/HX40W-II turbo for those who know what that means..I found it when I was looking for 6.5L info & joined to get more info on my upcoming transplant..Not as Weird as a Truck thinking it's a Car But the Fuel Economy He claims in 'Vette??!!??, That;s worth the work..Use This Browser Address: dieselcorvette.blogspot.com for the build.. Sometimes another universe is worth looking at(or in..)just for the mystery of it all..
