Overview

Presented here is a remarkable LS7-powered 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible, the product of an extensive custom build completed under prior ownership in 2007. During the refurbishment, the classic C2 body was refinished in sleek silver with '67-style enhancements and mounted on an SRIII Motorsports tubular chassis. Under the hood lies a formidable 7.0-liter LS7 crate engine paired with a Tremec five-speed manual transmission and hydraulic clutch system. Complementing the powertrain is a suite of high-performance upgrades, including Baer disc brakes with drilled and slotted rotors, adjustable QA1 coilovers, rack-and-pinion steering, and C4 Corvette-spec suspension geometry. The exterior is finished with a black Stayfast top, stinger-style hood, later-style side vents, side exhaust pipes, and electric headlight motors, while electric door poppers add a modern touch.

Inside, this reimagined Corvette offers a blend of vintage character and modern convenience. The cabin has been outfitted with heated aftermarket bucket seats upholstered in black, along with matching door panels and carpets. Comfort and entertainment are provided by a Vintage Air climate control system and a RetroSound stereo equipped with Bluetooth connectivity. Power windows and a tilting polished steering column enhance the driving experience, while the AutoMeter instrumentation includes a 200-mph speedometer, tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows just 8k miles since the completion of the build, reflecting its limited use and preserved condition.

Power delivery is sent to the rear wheels through a 3.50:1 limited-slip differential, ensuring dynamic performance to match the car’s bold aesthetics. Additional mechanical enhancements include an aluminum radiator with electric fan, painted intake manifold and valve covers, and coated headers feeding into the side exhaust system. Acquired by the current owner in 2024, this custom C2 Corvette is offered with a battery tender and clean title. A standout among restomods, this Corvette offers vintage allure backed by modern engineering and muscle car prowess.
