1967 CHEVROLET CORVETTE CUSTOM CONVERTIBLE

Details

This Corvette custom convertible is powered by a special-order GM Gen 5 LT1 6.2-liter V8 crate engine featuring a computer system with Lectric Limited Corvette body wiring harness that provides instant power. The engine is mated to a TREMEC 6-speed manual transmission and a Winters quick-change rear with 3.70 gearing nestled between heavy-duty C7 rear axles and ZR1 hubs. The engine breathes through Billy Boat polished stainless-steel headers with side-exit exhausts. Keeping the engine cool is a

custom DeWitts big-block polished radiator with dual fans, underpinned by a custom round-tube super chassis with C7 Z06 suspension. Keeping it upright is a set of Viking dual-action coilovers with 18 different settings for ride control, front and rear C7 sway bars, C7 Z06 Z51 brake package with 14-inch rotors and hydraulic over electric power brakes. The steering has been addressed with the addition of a Stiletto quick-steer power rack & pinion system linked to a Flaming River tilt steering column topped by a Billet Specialties steering wheel. The parking brake operates off the original E-brake handle, but is now electrically operated. Painted in a bright silver, all the bumpers have been triple-chrome-plated, and all the stainless has been painstakingly polished. Nice touches abound inside, with Al Knoch custom quilted black leather upholstery with double-stitched red trim, Vintage Air, power windows, power Z06 seats, power decklid and custom modified C6 waterfall between the seats. If the sounds from the engine and exhaust aren't enough, crank up the Custom Sound retro radio with Bluetooth, power amp and 6x9” speakers in the back. New LOF tinted glass will keep the sun at bay, and drivers will dig the original gauges with new electronics and Sky Drive. Grand Sport wheels wrapped in Nitto low-profile red line tires give this professionally built Sting Ray an impressive stance. Includes owner’s manual and photo book of restoration.
