1961 Corvette XP-796 2+2

If the proportions of this Corvette look a little off, your eyes are not deceiving you! Chevrolet chief Ed Cole ordered a prototype 4-seat Corvette to be built upon a stretched version of the new C2 chassis. Larry Shinoda designed the XP-796 2+2 , of which only one was built, but Chevrolet division chief Bunkie Knudsen was able to ultimately squash the project, when demand for the new C2 body style exceeded expectations.
