I'm considering a Resto-mod, does anyone have a listing of 63 -67 Resto-mod builders? Also any references good or bad.

Default Resto

My friend and I are building a restomod that we were or are going to sell at Barrett Jackson next year. It has a custom frame, 572 with three duces with 3" exhaust, rack and pinion power steering, Richmond 5 speed, Dana 3:73 rear, Bremo brakes, Afco adjustable chrome shocks, 17" Torque wheels. The body is a 66 vert. It is on its way from Mass. The body and interior can be any color combination you desire. Everything is new. If you are interested, I can post pictures. Let me know. Jerry

Check out Corvette Conspiracy up in Cleveland. They built my car and they know what they are doing. Go on their website and you can see lots of cars that they have done throughout the years...C1's, C2's, etc...

In the gallery, in the C2 section you'll find my 64 restomod.

Default Vetterods

I highly recommend Tim at Vetterods in Eden Prairie MN. He has done all of the bodywork and paint as well as the final assembly of my 63 restomod. His current projects include c1's and c2's on a Newman Chassis, Art Morrison chassis and R&R chassis.

His workmanship and professionalism are top notch. Only charges a small premium when I show up to help.

What can one expect to pay for a turn key "resto rod", small block stick car?
