We documented the resurrection/overhaul of a 1981 Corvette that had been left for dead. However, in it's new life it is a montage of old and new Corvettes and technology. As you will see from all the info in these pages, the amount of work involved in building a Resto-Rod is extensive.  

Some of the highlights are listed below. 

• SRIII Motorsports Tube Frame Chassis
• Late model C4 Z51 Front Suspension with Rack & Pinion Steering
• Late model C4 Dana 44 Rear and suspension with 3.90 Gears
• QA1 CoilOver adjustable shocks all around
• LS6 (Z06) Engine with Heads, Cam,  and Supercharger!
• 6 Speed T56 Transmission 
• and Lots! more...
