1961 Exclusive Chevrolet Corvette Resto Mod
Car History
The Corvette design was changed in 1961, and it was a product of
careful craftmanship and creative engineering as the world's finest
sports car in its performance class. In 1961, five Corvette models
were entered in the Sebring twelve-hour race in March. This was a
wonderful way for General Motors to show off the Chevrolet Corvette
models' style and handling performance for race car fans.
The 1961 Corvette models offered a rear ducktail design that was
first shown on the racing Stingray and the XP-700 show car.
Take the classic sport car design, give it the tasteful new
styling, with the sleek rear deck that is uncluttered and from that
point forward, it became obvious this Corvette was designed to be
driven!
The 1961 was built for enthusiastic rallyist, about towners,
countryside explorers, or all three to match the uncompromising
speed and performance offered made that was available at local
dealerships across the country, and at prices that made buying even
the highest end Corvette affordable.
It is our privilege to represent a complete 1961 Chevrolet Corvette
Resto-Mod that began as original and has been built to the highest
possible level new with a no-expense spared for the restoration on
this one-of-a-kind build with hundreds of man hours dedicated to
this complete refabrication into the supercar it is today!
