Have driven a few C3 corvettes recently. Even though my heart is set on a C5 I would consider getting a C3 project car if not for one glaring fault..
THE INTERIOR FINISH !!! UGH ! the interior of the C3 is of such crappy cheap plastic quality and so like an old wooden carriage that I sometimes wonder if the interior designers were remanants of 60s bong duty or something...... the dials are shoddy and old. The dash seems like its made of cheap cardboard...
ok, heres my question... I know I can strip the crappy seats away and put in some new racebuckets. But would it be possible to rip the entire dash and dials out and replace it with a late 90s mazda miata dash or maybe one from a modern roadster of equal interior width?
that would be great.. Now don't diss me guys.. I am a huge corvette fan an have studied and followed the evolution since its birth in 1953.
I love the C3 and the C5, but not really anything else.
Hate the new C6.... Like Yoda would say... "Turned the Corvette into an acura, they have... hmmm ?"
