What’s special about this listing

Ground-up Restored 427ci/LS3 V8 (600hp) 6 spd Roadster Shop Chassis Leather A/C // Few cars embody American muscle and timeless style like the Chevrolet Corvette. But a no-expense-spared, ground-up restoration of a 1980 Corvette, packed with cutting-edge components, takes it to another level. This restomod blends classic styling with modern engineering for a breathtaking driving experience. Under its sleek fiberglass body lies a Roadster Shop chassis with C6 Corvette spindles, a 4-link rear suspension, and adjustable Penske coilovers for world-class handling. C6 Z06 brakes and forged Nutek 301 wheels wrapped in Pirelli PZero tires deliver top-tier grip and stopping power. A stroked (7.0L) LS3 V8 crate engine is rated at 600 horsepower, enhanced by a custom, Lunati cam, long-tube headers, and a 3-inch stainless steel MagnaFlow exhaust. An aluminum radiator with electric fans keeps it cool, while an American Powertrain T-56 6-speed manual, Science Friction Stage 1 clutch, and Strange 9-inch Truetrac differential put power to the pavement. Drenched in BASF Jet Black paint, this Corvette boasts a sinister stance, complemented by tinted T-tops and remote door locks. Inside, restored factory leather seats, a classic 3-spoke steering wheel, and Dakota Digital gauges modernize the cockpit. Factory A/C and an Alpine stereo with Bluetooth and SiriusXM add comfort and convenience.
