This show-quality Resto-Mod was built from the ground up with great attention to detail. The suspension and drivetrain have been tuned to deliver modern performance and handling with the classic look and lines of the steel bumper Corvette Sting Ray body. It features a Jameson Corvette tube chassis engineered and designed to provide excellent handling. The front end has C4 Corvette spindles and A-arms with chrome coilover springs and shocks, rack & pinion steering, and linkage by Flaming River. The rear suspension is C4 Corvette. The brakes consist of Wilwood and C4 components with SST hardline or flexible braided lines, and the wheels are chrome C6 style.

The result is a ride height about 1-2 inches lower than the stock ‘71, with the tires tucked under the car to offer superb cornering. This convertible is powered by a 5.7-liter V8 LS1 engine, with an LS6 intake and fuel injection, mated to a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission. The bodywork was completed with a high level of professionalism and preparation, resulting in a stunning quality gloss black finish. The interior is factory fresh Saddle Tan leather and features power windows and a tilt/telescoping steering, while a Vintage Air system provides heat and air conditioning for a comfortable ride. A new Stayfast black convertible top provides excellent fit and finish.
