1961 Chevrolet Corvette Custom Convertible

Some History

This Corvette is finished in Dark Gray Metallic with red leather reclining seats and red ostrich trim from Al Knoch Interiors. The car, which sports a red Stinger scooped hood, was rebuilt several years ago using all-original body panels, and is powered by a GM Performance 525hp 6.2-liter LS3 engine. The LS3 is complemented by a Tremec TKO 600 5-speed manual transmission with a special .64 overdrive 5th gear and a hydraulic clutch. It features a Jim Meyer Racing tubular A-arm front suspension with QA1 shocks and adjustable coilovers, rack & pinion steering and Vintage Air, with a Vintage Air front runner belt drive system. Ceramic-coated headers with polished 3" stainless-steel exhaust and MagnaFlow stainless polished mufflers are built into a custom side exhaust system that comes through the body in front of the rear wheels. Engine cooling is provided by a Be Cool polished-aluminum radiator with an electric fan. A new custom polished-aluminum Currie Ford 9" rear housing with a 4-link and Panhard bar, aluminum Currie third member with Truetrac posi-traction with 3.90 gears, and shortened Dutchman axles complete the package. It's also equipped with power windows and an electric-powered hood. The Wilwood power brakes have 6-piston calipers in front and 4-piston in the rear with custom drilled and slotted rotors, as well as an E-brake with super dampener. A Flaming River tilt steering column provides control and responsiveness. The interior features a custom dash with red-lit Dakota Digital custom gauges, custom center console with touchscreen monitor, DVD receiver, Bluetooth and USB interface. It's also equipped with a Painless complete wiring system, custom headlights, 20" Budnik wheels, a black Stayfast soft-top and the trunk is completely trimmed out in red ostrich with a subwoofer and amplifier.
