Hi all, I am working to put the body of a 1976 C3 on the suspension of a C5. I don't believe it will be that difficult but I was wondering if any one had a print of a C3 chase? This will give me the measurements needed to decide what materials I will need to make it work.

If you are a good fabricator, then anything is possible. I know of a C-2 that was installed on a C-4 platform. Since the C-4 has a front suspension "clip", it makes it easier. Seems like I saw somewhere that the C-5 front upper control arms mount in a wierd way, making it a more difficult suspension to use.
The rear trans axle would be cool to have, that's for sure. Maybe you could combine them all and end up w/a C-12 (C-3+4+5=12).
Hope you work it out, keep us posted. Sounds like a good project.
