Well, it can be done, never seen one, but.........
Reasonably? That will be your call.

You can do anything if you have enough money. I have not seen a hatch installed on the ZO6. I have seen one converted to a convertible though (about $18K).

You would do much better to buy the hatch car you like and modify it to have the output and suspension of the ZO6 - Eckler's even sells the side vent kits, etc. It will cost much less.

I've never heard of that being done...but I've only been in the Vette world for a year....but haven't ever seen anyone talk about that on here in the last year either.

I would go with what Mr Willis suggests.....a lot easier...and cheaper to just mod the hatch back.
