Anyone interested in a four-door Chevrolet Corvette sedan with an XXL wheelbase? The oversized athlete is currently for sale. Chris Leo offers the limousine on behalf of a "Friend who has had it for over 20 years and who can no longer drive". It is listed on the Facebook marketplace for a buy-it-now price of $ 12.900.

The idea is apparently inspired by the “real” Corvette C3-based sedan, which was made in 1980 by California Custom Coach was built in small numbers. On behalf of General Motors were then a total of six vehicles from CCC as "Corvette America" rebuilt: a prototype and five customer cars. But they all looked better than this one.
