1967 CHEVROLET CORVETTE CUSTOM CONVERTIBLE

Details

Recently completed, professionally built 1967 Corvette Pro-Touring Resto-Mod. Roadster Shop fit the original ‘67 body to their Fast Track chassis with modern Corvette suspension, stainless-steel fuel tank, coilover adjustable suspension, 4- and 6-piston Wilwood calipers with drilled and slotted rotors, CV joint axles, custom posi-traction rear end, power rack & pinion steering, and independent front and rear suspension. Roadster shop crafted a custom rear floor and transmission tunnel to clear

the new chassis and transmission as well as fit the 625hp LSX 427ci engine. The LSX427 is mated to a T-56 6-speed manual transmission controlled by a hydraulic clutch. Features of the engine include KaTech powder-coated valve covers, custom carbon-fiber intake cover, coil relocation kit, and a Concept 1 front runner system with a power master alternator, polished aluminum power steering reservoir and polished aluminum air conditioning compressor. A DeWitts dual-fan LS radiator keeps the engine cool and is supplied by custom-made stainless-steel tubes. Stainless Works long-tube headers flow into 3” side pipes with Auger inserts that were custom-fabricated by Roadster Shop. Power is supplied by an American Auto Wire Highway 22 wiring system with the fuse panel hidden in the rear deck. Electrical components include: power windows from Auto City Classic controlled by a Billet Specialties switch, Detroit Speed headlamp motors, Dakota Digital programmable gauges and clock, Detroit Speed wiper motor, and heated seats. The interior also features a custom stereo system with two 12” subwoofers, two 6” speakers and tweeters with cross overs, and two 6” speakers with integrated tweeters all controlled by a remote Mount digital receiver with Bluetooth, with the head unit hidden behind the glove box door. The interior sports custom-made leather dash pads with French stitching, a custom-made center console wrapped in leather, Billet Specialties pedal covers, custom-made 80/20 loop red carpet, and restored original ‘67 seat frames with new leather covers and foam with seat heaters added to both the seat backs and seat bottoms. A modern heating and cooling system by Vintage Air keeps the cockpit cool or heated as needed. The original ‘67 Corvette top frame was completely reconditioned, new weatherstripping was installed and an updated Stayfast cloth top was professionally installed. Custom-made wide quarter-panels were added to the body of the car for a more aggressive stance and clearance of wider rear wheels and tires. BOZE custom-made clutch wheels provide just the right amount of clearance for both the brakes and the body while offering an aggressive Resto-Mod look.
