1982 Resto Mod Corvette. Nearly everything on this Corvette is either new or reconditioned.
It has had a full body off restoration with every single nut taken off. Frame was stripped and repainted no rust or damage. All bodywork was painted in stunning 2012 Ford Sonic Blue (the pictures honestly do not do it justice. I need to clean it as shes a little dusty. But nothing makes up for seeing it in person. All new suspension (F-41 front springs, rear leaf spring, KYB shocks), front and rear driveshaft u-joints, half shaft u-joints, adjustable rear caster camber rods, stainless trailing arm shims, bearings and bushings, body mounts and brake system (pads, rotors and calipers), stainless steel brake lines, e-brake, tires Goodyear Eagle II (still has blue protective coating on the white writing. Restored rims, just need repolishing. New stainless steel fuel line, upper and lower ball joints, poly sway bar links and mounting bushings, radiator, hoses, belts, distributor, coil and MSD wires. New a/c - heater control, water pump, oil pump, main and rod bearings, rings, Centerforce competion clutch, pressure plate and throwout bearing, flywheel, gaskets, Comp cams, lifters, steel roller rockers, power steering ram, hoses, assist, tie rods, inner and outer ends, idler arm, windshield.
New power door locks new radio wiring from radio to speakers front and rear, new power antenna wiring,( needs power antenna), new fuses , flashers, relays, all new headlight vacuum relays, lines, etc. Headlight adjuster hardware, all weather strips. L-82 performance Engine has performance cams, Holley carb (rebuilt and electric choke), Edelbrock intake, and was stripped and cleaned externally. 4 speed manual conversion (they didn't make the performance L-82 engine with the manual gear box) New Performance clutch. Rebuilt rear differential with new poly rear mounts. Beautiful side exit chrome exhausts. Entire wiring is brand new so is the carpet and the seats. You get the point, I'm sure there is a ton I have missed, but you see what I'm getting at. Too much to list, you really need to come and see it to appreciate it. The color is amazing in the sun, hard to capture on my camera, it is basically a new car! I spent a lot of time, money and effort on this, It's near completion 99% and only needs a couple of small things to make it 100% now... When I say 99% I really mean it. Front bumper has a little bit of damage from being in the garage.
All the hard work is done, anyone with minimal car knowledge and skills can get this finished. Over $25k invested, and countless hours spent.
My situation will be changing shortly so it has to go unfortunately. |
