Default Monte Carlo on a Corvette Chassis

Is it possible to throw a newer generation monte carlo ss on a corvette Chassis? Like a zo6 vette chassis or something.

Hi ANtdeez & Welcome to the MCF

`Mike (JG) you are so right (correct), but a person could put a Z06 Engine/trans/etc in2 a RWD Montes like a 4th Gen etc...
It still would take lots of $'s, but not as much $'s as trying to convert a Fwd Monte 4-Sure...

It's a great dream ~> A Big Lotto or inheritance type of dream

^^^ This ^^^

West Coast Customs has done a couple early model body on to late model chassis conversions (a 'vette and a gto) so a Monte body on a Z06 chassis shouldn't be a problem.

It would be pretty cool but like others have said get your checkbook out. I always thought it would be cool to build an s10 pickup on a Vette chassis
