Yeah, the car's called Chezoom and was designed and built by Boyd Coddington in 1994. He built it for "the head of the largest automobile corportation in the world" and has the entire running gear, including engine and all suspension from a '94 ZR-1 Corvette. Can you guess who the client worked for? Boyd's goal was to make a full-on custom car that could be taken to the nearest Chevrolet dealership to get service work done. Very ingenious.
I actually had the opportunity to see Chezoom and Boyd's other killer customs called the Aluma Coupe and the Smoothster in person a few years ago. These cars have to be seen to truly be appreciated.
In case anyone is curious, here are a couple of links for pics of the real cars that I mentioned. Oh, and check out the selling price of Chezoom
