Details

This Pro-Touring 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Resto-Mod underwent a professional full restoration with no expense spared by Mike Zinevich at Z's Radical Rods. It is powered by a new Chevrolet Gen 5 LT1 6.2-liter engine producing 460hp and 465 ft/lbs of torque, backed by a 4L70E 4-speed transmission. The body sits on an Art Morrison chassis with four 14-inch Wilwood brakes for stopping power, along with a completely adjustable front and rear suspension. This car rolls on Schott wheels wrapped with Hankook Evo white line tires for that proper stance and correct look. This car features a Vintage Air system, power windows, DeWitts radiator, Classic Instruments and clock, Rick's stainless fuel tank, electric hood, Detroit Speed wipers and headlight motors, a '67 Ididit chrome collapsible tilt steering column, rack & pinion steering, CVF serpentine front runner and an E-Stopp emergency brake. The body was completely stripped and fitted with 1967 front fenders and hood, then all the gaps were made correct on the entire car. The front inner fender wells and firewall were replaced to completely smoothen out the engine bay. A special mix of PPG Mint Green was applied after blocking the car down laser-straight. It was clearcoated with a high-solids clear and completely sanded and polished before assembly. The bottom of the car was sprayed with ceramic coating, while the inside was covered in sound-deadener to help keep the heat and sound to a minimum inside the car. The interior was finished in Linen leather with German square-weave carpet. The stereo is styled after a 1967 Corvette and features Bluetooth and a JL Audio amplifier with two subwoofers and four speakers for quality sound. The sale includes manuals of the build. This car has more than 100 test miles.
