BODYWORK/TRIM

Sealed in rich black 2-stage this slick C2 is the beneficiary of a detailed ground-up restoration thats been sorted through roughly 150 miles of road time. In addition to near-perfect alignment the cars body features show worthy aesthetics that are the direct result of new trim new emblems and fresh chrome bumpers. Those striking details have been carefully married to a collection of surfaces that is much nicer than anything that rolled out of the factory. And the result is a seriously sinister roadster that presents as one of the coolest classics in our 250 car showroom!

When you think of Corvettes classy usually isnt the first thing that comes to mind. Its not that Americas sports car lacks class. It simply floods the mind with far more appealing descriptors like fast free and lust-worthy. After all this C2 was built to lap tracks not float through a stuffy regimen of tea times. At the front of the car bullet-style marker lights a mirrored bumper and a patriotic cross-flag emblem cage a fresh stainless grille. At the sides of that grille traditional door handles and factory heat extractors float amid monochromatic rocker guards bright FUEL INJECTION emblems and a chrome bowtie mirror. That mirror reflects clean glass which is sealed between polished frames polished wipers and a black canvas top. Behind that top an ornate fuel filler is centered between a power antenna and a red-detailed Sting Ray emblem. And beneath that emblem chrome-trimmed tail lamps illuminate mirrored bumpers a chrome tag bracket and polished stainless exhaust tips.

Up top a polished Spectre air tube funnels wind through a GM throttle body to a 102mm F.A.S.T. LSXR intake. That air marries fuel in rectangular-port L92-style heads which hide 2.165 intake and 1.590 exhaust valves under Corvette-branded fuel rail covers. A forged crank forged connecting rods and forged pistons compress that volatile union. A proven Comp cam maximizes intake efficiency through better breathing. Speaking of breathing the smooth mill funnels spent
