An unusual tuning project based on a 1969 Chevrolet Corvette has been listed for sale in the USA. The classic sports car was converted into a long limousine and priced at $98,000. Autoevolution reports on this.

The car was created on the basis of a third-generation Corvette. The coupe was cut in the center and an additional body section with a second pair of doors and small side windows was inserted. After the conversion, the car’s length increased to approximately 6 meters. It also received enlarged alloy wheels and a side exhaust.

The interior of the modified Corvette is now designed for four passengers. Modern seats were installed, power windows for all side windows, and removable roof panels not only over the first but also over the second row of seats.

Leather was used in the trim. The car received a digital instrument panel, a modern audio system, and as many as three screens for passengers, which is atypical for a classic late-1960s sports car.
