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!
