Vehicle Description
This gorgeous custom Corvette has undergone a full rotisserie restoration. It's powered by an LS1 Corvette engine coupled to a new T56 Magnum Tremec 6-speed manual transmission with a new GM plug-and-play factory wiring harness and factory-programmed computer. Frame modifications include a Jim Meyers Racing independent front suspension, an aluminum 4-bar rear suspension, power rack & pinion steering and coilover shocks on all four corners. The Corvette has Wilwood slotted and drilled power disc brakes, and the exhaust is a custom 3" four-tailpipe setup with Flowmaster mufflers. The all-new red Ultraleather interior is finished with a Dakota Digital VHX instrument cluster, microfiber carpeting and a Monsoon custom sound system with rear-mounted subwoofer. The car was professionally built with outstanding body lines and seams after being completely stripped with glass beads. PPG paint was used, followed by four coats of clear sanded from 800 to 5,000 grit, and then polished to give the resulting ultra-sheer finish. This is a gorgeous car with just the right combination of the classic 1961 Corvette and custom upgrades to make it ride and drive like a new Corvette. Attention to detail played a vital role, including concealment of all the engine bay wiring during the engine bay restoration, the addition of a new fuel tank in the spare tire well, refinishing all the stainless and chrome components to further enhance the car's exterior brilliance and luster, and the addition of 17" American Racing aluminum rims that further balances the car's form and beauty.
