When it comes to classic cars ripe for the Restomod treatment, few are as deserving of a C1 Corvette. The beauty and late-50s style are all there but, from the driver’s seat, the first generation ‘Vettes leave a lot to be desired.

 

Clearly, we’re not the first ones to figure this out and the basic Restomod recipe is tried and true. What we are going to do with this one is give it a little Old Anvil Speed Shop twist. 

 

Oh, and we started with beat down pile of parts which, as far as we can tell, lived a former life as a track-only drag car.
