Default Mr. Regular Reviews the Definitive C3 Corvette Restomod



Regular Car Reviews takes a second look at the Corvette C3. Not just any C3, but a "restomod" version. That word is fairly important, as Mr. Regular points out.

Read the rest on the Corvette Forum homepage. >>

No EFI or LS engine, no overdrive, no suspension mods. There are a lot of cars with more mods on this forum.

Yeah, the narrator defined "restomod" as "restore and modernize" and then said it was built with a bunch of "period correct" stuff. A 77 with 69 Z28 heads... yay. Nearly as fast as an L98. Not to mention the sweet edelbrock carburetor, setting the clock back about a decade vs the OE carburetor.
