C8 Corvette interior swap
I would be interested to see this in person. I imagine a lot of headroom was lost, but I'm not sure.

Re: C8 Corvette interior swap
It's not my cup of tea. Not a huge fan of full on interior swaps. However....the amount of work and craftsmanship that must have went into that....WOW! Incredible!!!!! ....Not for ME, but glad there are people out there who want, and are able to get this crazy stuff done!!!!

Re: C8 Corvette interior swap
Somewhere a C8 sacrificed itself for this. It's amazing workmanship, but there is a dead C8 out there.

Re: C8 Corvette interior swap
Actually, that is doubtful. There were 130 some-odd C8's totaled by some crazy storms that hit the plant. Those cars were subsequently parted out (as opposed to just being crushed). So, assuming that is where these materials came from, I'd say it's a win.

All that and it looks like they left the stock brakes. Someone is going to die in that car the first time it has to stop from 150+.

Re: C8 Corvette interior swap
Weather exposure might be why the metal on the throttle body is already lightly corroded.

Re: C8 Corvette interior swap
I’m not a fan of it, but they definitely put in the work. If you watch the rest of the channel, they just seem like normal car buffs too and not some sort of crazy fabricators, so it’s pretty shocking to me that they did such a great job.
