This bright red 1967 Chevrolet Camaro is seeking additional power and road holding performance, and that’s exactly what it’s going ot get at the V8 Speed and Resto Shop! Power will come from a modern LS engine, and the “road holding” performance will be courtesy of a Roadster Shop Spec Chassis. It’s going to retain the classic look with a whole new personality!
This beautiful Hugger Orange 1969 Chevrolet Corvette came to the V8 Speed and Resto Shop barely breathing through the old carburetor and slipping gears with a slushy automatic transmission. The owner wants more, and we don’t blame him. The fix is in the form of a Holley Terminator X EFI system and a Tremec TKX 5-speed manual transmission.

Look closely at the gold in the fins… there’s a lot going on in there! This project, penned by designer Murray Komant, is one of many ideas brewing at the V8 Speed and Resto Shop. What’s on your mind? Maybe we can get Murray to visualize it, and the V8 Crew can build it!
