Vehicle Description
Champion Motors International proudly presents a one of a kind
custom award winning 1970 Chevrolet Corvette Resto-Mod finished in
Candy Apple Red with a Camel leather interior. It is apparent from
first glance that this Corvette is a special car. An amazing amount
of money, labor and love has been poured into it by its current
owner. With an investment in excess of $100,000, there isn't a spot
that hasn't been touched.While approaching the car, you notice the
beautiful Candy Apple Red paint. The first three coats were painted
in gold with 20 candy apple top coats and three clear coats.
Additional exterior features include stainless steel slat front
grill, refinished chrome bumpers, 1980 mounted side mirrors, red
bullet tail lights, custom 40 gallon gas tank and a Viper fuel
cap.While gazing over the interior, you notice the custom features.
The seats are from a 1980 Corvette and are finished in Camel-hair
leather with full race harnesses. The glove box, air-conditioning,
ash trays and radio and console have been removed and replaced with
custom race gauges and a black Plexiglas center console.Under the
hood is an original GM Bow Tie big block, bored, stroked and
balanced to 522 cubic inches. Internals include an Eagle 4.0 crank,
Eagle 6.385 rods, Manley pro pistons, Manley valves, Dart Pro-1 345

NY. Current horsepower is 676 with 559 lb-ft of torque, but can be
tuned higher. Power is sent to the Custom HRE 3 piece 18 inch
