Need some quick advice guys, I have a 96 WS6 as my weekend toy. But I've found a 84 Corvette that I'm being very tempted by ... So my question is what would you guys do keep my WS6 or switch to a 84 C4 ... ?

The C4 in my pic is an 86, with rod end links in the rear, some stuff to help the caster issues, a 44hd diff, way too much HP and we beat the crap out of it (or we did, when we had money to run it). Lots and lots of cheap parts floating around. I think the only draw back is caging one.......

I've done 3 of them, one of the keys is to ditch the OEM roof and replace it with a thin glass piece, lets you push the halo up higher. They are a lot smaller than a Fbod, so more fitting/welding is done standing outside rather than crawling around inside.
