To this day I think that the 1968-1972 corvette is the most beautiful car ever built. I love my LS1 98 camaro a lot 2. Since i'm graduating college this year, i was thinking about selling my camaro, getting a truck and looking for a 1968-1972 corvette that needed some time and love put into it. My question is, how hard would it be to find a totalled ls1 fbody, or corvette and transplant the 6 speed transmission and ls1 into a 1968-1972 corvette. I myself am not a mechanic, but my grandfather would be helping me with this project, is a retired mechanic. I was just curious if anyone knew of anyone who has done this? or if it could be done, ( I know that everything can be done with the right amount of cash ) but how pratical it would to be to do. i mean if i had a totaled f body, that would mean i could get the engine, tranny, computer, wiring harness,radiator, etc. If this could be done, does anyone think that this is a stupid idea? and if so please tell me why. My though process is that i could have the most beautiful car everbuilt, ( in my eyes) and have the modern engine technology,power, and mpg. would love for some feed back even though i'm a newbie
