You'd be better off selling your car & buying a FRC.

Someone has done it, IIRC it took forever to do (2 years or something). I'm sure he'll chime in here but I'll see if i can remember his name. Unless your mods total 10k+ and woul taker you years to compile again i say sell the car and get an frc, could always return the car to stock then get an frc.

EDIT: I think his name is BlownVette 2001, might want to send him a PM.

That's going to be a serious under-taking... Buy an FRC. Swap the modded stuff over, and put the non-modded stuff from the FRC into the coupe. Then sell the coupe.

No joke, to change a coupe to an FRC is going to be a bigger PITA than just swapping your modded stuff over.
