Beater Batshit: Chevette Limo

$800 for rough running, sat two years, rough interior Chevette usually deserves "Tell Him He's Dreamin'." But what if this particular Chevette has a three foot stretch? The x-body limo market is pretty sparse so comparing prices is dicey. While the ad seems pretty honest for craigslist it doesn't answer the pressing questions of who or why this Chevy received a unit extension. Where 2x4s and plywood used in the construction? Does "very few made" really mean only one guy made one in his garage?

  1. actually it runs fine, i'm trading the dude for my ex show truck (got raped by a jeep) and the rough interior on this actually meant that the stretched area needs carpet and headliner. I'm going up this weekend. That stretched spot is another door btw. totaling the length of the car to 20ft.

  2. Ok, I can believe the engine runs fine but please enlighten us as to how it came into being. Who made it and what inspired them to construct the worlds longest Chevette? If the stretched sides are doors how was the floor fabricated? If this is still around I'd love to do a beater road test.
