She was built With over 50 tasteful body modifications that pay tribute to every aspect of the C1 Corvette from 1953-62. This is not a kit car, or a hack job. You will never see another one like this on the road or ever built. Powered with the heart beat of a modern Fuel injected Corvette LS1 engine. Engineered to stop on a dime with large Wilwood 4 wheel disc brakes. The entire chassis has been detailed and upgraded to drive and handle like a modern car. Independent front suspension with power rack and pinion steering, and a Built 9" rear. The Interior and top are 100% new from Al Knock.
