Complete frame-off restoration of a 1954 Chevrolet Corvette. This car arrived in heavily deteriorated condition — rotted fiberglass, a seized drivetrain, and decades of neglect throughout. The restoration included full frame strip and rebuild, complete mechanical overhaul, extensive fiberglass repair, body preparation, paint, and final assembly. It left our shop a show-quality car finished in brilliant red with a red interior, white dashboard, and period whitewalls. Every nut and bolt was addressed. This is what a proper frame-off restoration looks like.
