For the record, this 1976 Chevrolet Corvette doesn't pretend to be a first-generation Dodge Viper. In fact, it still wears prominent Corvette branding both inside and out, though Chevrolet Bow Tie badges on the door panels do have the word Saber on them. There are also Saber badges on the fenders, which must mean this is a 1976 Corvette Saber. And as far as we can tell, you could buy it if you absolutely must have it.
This interesting C3 Corvette/Dodge Viper mashup was listed recently on Bring A Trailer, where it didn't meet the seller's reserve price. We'll talk more about that later, but first, exactly what makes this curious Corvette bid worthy? According to the auction, this is allegedly one of two made by a company called RPM Design Limited and was built in the 1990s. The fiberglass body kit adds extensive modifications that resemble the OG Viper, right down to the side-exit exhaust. Though if we're honest, side-exit exhaust was also a popular aftermarket tweak to the C3 'Vette back in the day.
