    I just found out about this ultimate sleeper build from the 80s

    The left car in the Picture is actually a 1986 Corvette C4 Convertible: They put the body from an Opel Kadett E on top of it and Callaway did some performance upgrades to the engine so it makes 306hp. The Opel Kadett E was basically in the same class as a VW Rabbit and a popular car in...
