Vehicle description
This 1962 Chevrolet Corvette custom convertible is powered by a GM Performance Connect and Cruise Gen V 6.2-liter LT1 direct-injected engine dressed in a blacked-out Holley front runner accessory drive. The engine is paired with a 4L75E 4-speed automatic transmission connected to a Strange Engineering third member with 3.70 gears. It rides on a Galaxy Silver powder-coated Art Morrison GT sport chassis featuring sport suspension with Strange aluminum coilover shocks that are fully adjustable for ride height. Stopping power is provided by power-assisted Wilwood brakes with 13-inch slotted and drilled rotors, 6-piston calipers up front and 4-piston calipers at the rear. The stainless-steel exhaust system features MagnaFlow mufflers. This custom Resto-Mod rolls on custom-built Schott Performance wheels measuring 20 inches in the rear and 19 inches in the front, wrapped in red line tires. The body was professionally restored and finished top to bottom in a custom mixed Jewel Blue Pearl with Sterling Gray Metallic coves under high solids clearcoat. The 1961-style cove trim was added, and all chrome and stainless components were refurbished. The interior is completed in Brandy Wine-colored leather with double-stitched black accents and gray German square-weave carpet. The cabin features concave seats for increased legroom, a Vintage Air Gen V Super Cooler system, Dakota Digital RTX gauges, a Bluetooth OEM-style radio and a Shiftworks shifter. The trunk is finished to match with Brandy Wine leather and gray square-weave carpet. Additional features include a Pepper-colored Stayfast convertible top, LED lighting and a linear hood-opener. This professionally built Resto-Mod was completed in August 2025 and has test miles only.
