A proper restomod preserves the timeless lines of the original while incorporating modern engineering underneath and this little red custom Corvette is a textbook example of how to do it right.If it weren't for the sporty wheels, a casual observer might even mistake it for an original. It is most definitely not original but in many ways, it's even better.Built on a Coffman Corvette chassis, the underside features double-adjustable coilover shocks and brakes from a C6 Z06 (including calipers and rotors), giving it supercar-level handling. Under the hood is a new 495 HP LS3 engine, cleverly dressed to resemble the original L71 427/435 HP. Unless you look closely and spot the fuel rails, you'd swear it came from the factory that way.The original 4-speed transmission has been replaced with a smooth-shifting Tremec T56 Magnum 6-speed overdrive paired with a GM clutch, offering improved drivability and performance.The interior has been tastefully upgraded while retaining a factory-fresh look. There's rack-and-pinion steering on the new chassis, and so a Flaming River tilt column has been added, making entry and exit easie into the white leather headrest bucket seats in the cockpit. A Dakota Digital RTX gauge cluster and clock now take the place of outdated originals, and the radio has been upgraded with Bluetooth capability.To enhance comfort, the car features Vintage Air Gen IV climate control. The original emergency brake lever has been replaced with a push-button electronic unit, and the console switches still operate the power windows. Known reliability issues with the factory headlight and wiper motors have been resolved using Detroit Speed motor kits.As you can see, the upgrades on this Corvette provide modern amenities that make it more enjoyable, safer, and more reliable to drive, all while staying true to the original design. It still wears all the factory badging, trim, and even side pipes, but now you can get in and confidently drive it anywhere.
