Custom Trunk with optional rug my wife hand-hooked with C1 Corvette silhouette and emblem  – took her a year to complete! (She’s gonna kill me!)

Complete restoration of internal and external door parts/mechanisms with brand new parts.

Her name is Trixie! My goal was to keep her as original in appearance but to have restomod reliability and performance. She drives like a modern vehicle.  She is tittled in Maryland as Historic. Original VIN. Clean title.  She is meant to be driven at least a little. Literally perfect condition.  Never rained on. Never hosed or powerwashed. Sponge only. Climate controlled storage.  I acquired her 3 years ago. I was the only owner since the build was completed. I installed a new battery last year. I change the oil and filter every year. See included poster board if you want to show her. See pics of special tool I made to safely remove hubcap spinners. My pictures are not professional but I tried to include different lighting scenarios ie full sun, shade, indoors. I  removed the wheels in some of the photos to show the modern Art Morrison suspension and the wheels themselves. I do not have a lift so the undercarriage pictures are the best I can take. I have many more pictures including the build process when she looked very rude! What an amazing transformation! High quality restomod C1 corvettes have gone for insane $ at the big auctions.

A quick note about OBO. This does not mean a 50% off fire sale! Please be within striking distance. Keep in mind, to commission a car built to this caliber with high end components and quality takes at least 2-3 years and costs well over $200k. The process is exciting but time consuming, alot of work and anxiety on both ends. For example, many of the chrome parts took almost a year to refinish. I waited almost a year to obtain the GM crate motor computer module due to supply chain issues. I waited 4 months just for the brand new Al Knoch seats. I enjoyed the process but there were many times I wasn’t sure I would ever cross the finish line.

I encourage everyone looking at this add to take the plunge and have one built to your specs.  However, if you don’t like waiting and are not a fan of emotional strife, you can have instant gratification by purchasing mine! I also want someone who will promise to take good care of her as I have.

Feel free to contact me with questions.
