n2a Motors 789 Convertible Is Ultra Cool
Published by MoonDog on November 6, 2009
The n2a Motors concept car called the 789 combines the design features from three different classic Chevy models, including the 1957 Bel Air, the 1958 Chevrolet Impala and the horizontal fins of a 1959 Chevrolet.
The designers then wrapped this contemporary body around a Corvette C6 chassis to create one very ultra cool car.
The nose of the 789 is represented by the familiar hood rockets, chrome hood V, grille bar, parking lights, rubber bumper tips and headlight bezel of a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air. Just for an added flair, what looks like 1957 Chevy hood bar extensions wrap around the front fenders.
Rear treatment is a very close match to the spread wings and cat eye taillights of the 1959 Chevrolet’s slim line design styling including the placement of the license plate.
All along the side, stainless trim bears a resemblance to a 1958 Chevrolet Impala, right down to the placement of the Corvette crossed flags emblems. The 789 interior is similar to the tri-colored ribbed vinyl used in 1958 Chevy Impala almost 50 years ago.
The 789 is well equipped with all of the standard features the Corvette has to offer, including a 6.0 Litre LS2 400 horsepower V8 motor and an automatic or 6-speed manual transmission.
The challenge of creating a new automobile with 1950s design must have been difficult and this new convertible is obviously a dream ride for most men. However, the 789 comes with a hefty price tag, with the MSRP exceeding $40,000.
Check out a few more photos of the 789.
