If there were an automotive recipe for freedom, more likely than not, it would include a V-8 engine, a convertible top, and a classic, sporty look. That's why this custom 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Restomod is so captivating. Add to that, this C3's full black paint, red fender hash marks, roll hoops, and ultra-aggressive L88-style hood to go along with its undeniably alluring Coke-bottle shape, and you have an incredibly collectible car that is unlike any other third-generation 'Vette out there.
Inside, we find a custom red vinyl interior. A full-length center console separates a pair of aftermarket bucket seats. A four-spoke, power-assisted steering wheel features a Crossed Flags center cap and sits ahead of an upgraded set of gauges, highlighted by a large 160 mph speedometer and a matching 8,000 rpm tachometer, both backlit in red. Gone are the C3's auxiliary gauges, and in their place is a big Sony AM/FM/AUX touchscreen that offers Bluetooth connectivity to allow for whatever soundtrack you want to accompany your next road trip.
Under that signature front-hinged hood, we find a massive 496 cubic-inch Vortec V-8 engine. By eliminating the front license plate bracket, this big block is essentially force-fed air into its intake manifold by the oncoming atmosphere. This big block eliminates spent gases through a set of Hooker long-tube headers before exiting out of those glorious side pipes. Power is routed through a tried-and-true Richmond six-speed manual transmission before heading out to the rear end, which transfers those ponies to the pavement via a set of 17-inch Vintage Wheel Works wheels.
