This 1957 Corvette custom convertible is powered by a new supercharged LSA 6.2-liter V8 engine, producing a factory-rated 556hp and 551 ft/lbs of torque, with full stainless-steel exhaust. The engine is paired with a T56 Magnum 6-speed manual transmission. The car sits on a Paul Newman chassis that includes power rack & pinion steering and 4-wheel power disc brakes. The engine is cooled by a custom-built Be Cool radiator. The stainless-steel fuel tank is built by Rick's Tanks. The paint was
stripped off the body, with the plastic media-blasting method, and is finished with Evercoat polyester primer topped off with Axalta base coat/clear coat paint. This Resto-Mod is finished in Jet Black with a matching Stayfast convertible top. The Torch Red leather interior features reclining custom seats for added head and legroom, and Vintage Air handles interior heating and cooling. The customized steering column provides additional leg and body room. The car was upgraded with an electric-actuated hood opener and a Bluetooth AM/FM Wonder Bar radio. The interior floor, firewall and underside are finished with LizardSkin ceramic coating for sound and heat control. The trunk is completed with Torch Red leather and carpet. This ride features custom rear quarters to accommodate the Schott wheels and Pirellis P Zero tires. The project was completed in November 2019, with over 1,800 hours invested in the build, and driven less than 200 test miles since completion.
