1979 Chevrolet Corvette This car has been rebuilt from the ground
up with each component getting refreshed or replaced as part of the
restoration. The chassis is from a rust-free donor '78 and was
built up with Steeroids rack and pinion power-steering kit,
fiberglass rear spring, new fuel/brake lines, new brakes, rebuilt
calipers and new Foose wheels. All rubber was replaced with new or
exchanged for polyurethane. The body was transplanted with the
accompanying 'bird cage' from the donor and the floor pans were
also replaced. The interior is new, Dakota Digital gauges, custom
aftermarket seats, Retro Sound Bluetooth Stereo and new speakers
all around. The lights have upgraded to LED. The transmission is
the stock TH350 but has been rebuilt. The engine has been rebuilt
with the original block and heads, but all internals have been
upgraded and the cylinders were bored .050 over, cam is mild for
street use. The Engine features a Fitech fuel injection system w/
auxiliary fuel sump and electric pump under the hood and
coordinating electric fan. The radiator is a Champion aluminum
radiator with the transmission cooler tank as well. The exhaust is
a one-off production from my imagination and required the removal
of the A/C, but so worth it. It is Jet coated from headers back and
wrapped under the hood for added heat containment. Outside the car
you can see the differences, but the headlight and front bumper
section was also custom designed and built, the rear is a ZR-1
fiberglass bumper has has been molded on. All the fiberglass was
gel-coated over for more reliability. T-tops replaced with an
Astro-top one-piece blue tinted top. Please Note The Following
