Description
less than 100 miles on the car since my purchase in 2009.
At first glance, the car appears to have had a very technical, by the book, frame off restoration. That is until
you raise the hood and look at the power train components. (See Power Train Details below).
The quality of the fiber glass components of the first generation Corvettes were not up to the standards of the
later generation Corvettes. All of the doors and panels on this car were trued to the body before any paint work
was performed. All chrome components of the car were either replaced or re-chromed. All new stainless trim was
installed along with all new interior, carpets, door panels, dash and seats. All new glass and rubber components
were installed. All hinges were either restored or were replaced with NOS. All new NOS bolts throughout. New
brakes, and new stainless steel brake lines, The suspension system was completely restored with new components.
Please spend some time reviewing the pictures of the underside of this car. Please note that the leaf springs have
a canvas insert installed between each leaf spring. I have yet to see a frame off restoration where the springs
were restored to this level of detail.
This week I have had all of the door rubber seals replaced with new rubber and a high quality glue as the original
seals were coming lose in some places.
Note: The car does come with the factory hardtop that was also restored with all new glass and chrome trim (see
pictures). The convertible top was new at the time of the restoration. Please note that the top has spent it's
entire life under the deck lid of the car. Some of the wrinkles in the top will come out once the car spends some
time in the sun and is fully snapped into place (see picture).
Please note that this car has power windows which is
