Restomods are cars that still retain a mostly original outer appearance, but offer modern performance and convenience upgrades under the skin. The following videos feature some of the restomods cars either built or modified by the V8 Speed and Resto Shop over the years. See more in the Photos menu above!

🚀 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Roadster Re-Do Chapter 2: Bodywork Update at the V8 Speed and Resto Shop
This iconic 1963 Corvette rolled into the V8 Speed and Resto Shop with …a the fiberglass body needing some TLC. It’s riding on a custom chassis, and the owner enlisted our team to repair the cracked and damaged original fiberglass body with a new front section, perform other required bodywork, and give it a great looking new paint job.
## Chapter 2
In this installment, we take a look at the body after the installation of the new front nose and other fiberglass body panels. The V8 Speed and Resto Shop team has performed much of the bodywork on the car and it is getting closer to having a coat of primer sprayed on the body, in preparation for a Riverside Red paint scheme with custom stitched white interior.
## What’s in store for this Restomod C2 Corvette Roadster?
– Masking and painting the body in Riverside Red
– Installation of an 525 HP LS3 Chevrolet engine and Tremec TKX 5-speed manual transmission
– Custom Corvette-inspired billet wheels from EVOD Industries
– Custom stitched white leather interior by V8 Speed and Resto
Stay tuned as we transform this 1963 Corvette into a beautiful roadster that is as pleasing to the eye as it is stirring to the soul. We’ll share progress photos and updates along the way, so you can witness the magic happening right here!
