One might assume that falling in love with the 1963 Corvette, the only model year that saw the C2 sporting a split rear window, means sticking to the traditional ways. However, the variety of builds out there shows this isn't necessarily true. Let's take the split-window 'Vette we have here, for instance, which isn't even a '63.
The Chevy sitting before us is actually a 1964 model, but has received quite a bit of aftermarket attention, which explains that rear window conversion – take a good look at this ride, as it makes for a build to remember.
For one, the familiar body panels you see here sit on a custom chassis built by Roadster Shop, so this thing isn't afraid to throw itself at a twisty road.
As for the motivation, we're looking at an LS swap. To be more precise, the engine compartment of the Chevrolet Corvette now accommodates an LS7 motor that has been touched by the velocity fanatics over at Texas Speed.
Now, this puppy might be familiar, since we're talking about a build completed by an Arizona-based specialist called American Legends Hotrods and Muscle Cars - these gearheads are always out for an adventure that rattles candlesticks in Purist Land, as their 1968 Ford Mustang Corruptt project has come to show (think: twin-turbo Ferrari heart and all).
And since the BASF Glasurit shade that covers the car is difficult to put into words, feel free to check this out in the media below - yes, this Corvette is badass enough to enjoy its own Instagram page.
This project is no stranger to carbon fiber, as the rear bumper, or various pieces of the cabin show. Oh, and let's not forget the wheels!
PS: No, your eyes are not playing tricks on you, this thing has gained some extra inches in various places, as, for instance, the machine is slightly wider.
