1964 Chevrolet Corvette
Our 1964 Corvette takes a completely different approach than your typical restoration.
Built by Brayden “Sheldon” Steelman as our SEMA Battle of the Builders Young Guns entry, the Corvette blends unmistakable C2 styling with an aggressive modern stance and performance.
The build features a Roadster Shop C7-spec chassis, GM LSX 376, Tremec 6-speed manual transmission, widebody, aggressive wheels, climate control, modern electronics, and a completely custom interior featuring red-tinted carbon fiber.
The Corvette has also been selected as a SEMA Feature Vehicle with Vintage Air, making this an especially exciting opportunity for Sheldon and the entire Reserve team.
