The body was removed from the chassis and refinished in its factory Silver Pearl (986) color. Features include an eggcrate grille, three vertical vents per fender, side-exit exhaust pipes, and a hood cowl. Close-up photos of the paintwork, badging, and retractable headlights show the fine caliber of this restoration.
The car's replacement black convertible top was expertly installed by Corvette specialist. The body-colored matching hardtop is shown fitted in the photos. Turbine-style 15" wheels feature three-eared knock-off spinners with 215/70 BFGoodrich Radial T/A goldline tires.
The interior, per the trim tag, was delivered new in Silver (426) and now features beautiful replacement Silver seats and door panels sourced from Knoch Interiors. The vertically-mounted Delco AM/FM radio was rebuilt and features an auxiliary input. Additional equipment includes a wood-rimmed Nardi three-spoke steering wheel, manually-operated windows, and lap belts for both occupants.
Instrumentation consists of a 7k-rpm tachometer, a 160-mph speedometer, and supplementary gauges. The five-digit odometer reads 38795 miles, 3,500 of which have been added recently.
Power is provided by a 454ci V8 that was stroked to a displacement of 496ci by Eddings Engine Inc. in San Fernando, California. The engine block casting shown within the gallery includes the digits 3999289. Modifications include:
