Extraordinary build quality and precision engineering are the hallmarks of this stunning 1957 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible. The body has been extensively massaged with the rear quarter fenders bulged 3.5 inches, flush door handles, custom air vents fitted on the side just forward of the rear wheels, shaved bumpers, and parking lights and turn signals relocated to inside the grille. Finished to a deep sheen in PPG Black with contrasting silver coves, the aggressive forward-raked stance is further highlighted by a custom one-off set of ultra-wide Asanti wheels mounted on low-profile radial tires. The engine is a 7.0L LS7 V-8 equipped with a custom cold air intake and custom-fabricated exhaust headers for 565 HP that is transmitted through a Tremec 6-speed manual gearbox and a Dana 3.73 Positraction rear end. The fully independent front and rear suspension feature carbon fiber transverse leaf springs. The 4-wheel disc brakes feature massive Baer rotors with six-piston calipers. The quality extends to the interior, which consists of Italian leather and German carpet that reflects the same exterior color palette of black and silver and was expertly installed by Ron Mangus. This same theme is carried over to the detailed trunk compartment. Creature comforts include air conditioning, power windows and a hidden Kicker stereo system. Interior details reveal Classic Instrument gauges, a Hurst Shifter and a leather-covered vintage Corvette steering wheel. It is no wonder that the Resto Mod movement has taken off with such intensity in the recent years. Combining vintage styling with modern- day power, safety and comfort, this seductive package delivers the best of both worlds. This custom build was completed in 2018 by Corvette Correction, a highly respected marque specialist from Seguin, Texas, that is universally recognized for its exceptional craftsmanship. |
