C7 LT1 Split Window

[Legacy Innovations]

Long time viewer of Pro-Touring.com and finally decided to get a build thread on here. We are a southern Pa custom shop specializing in making customers happy. This specific project is a '63 Split Window purchased as a complete basket case and former mako shark body. The body is about 75% complete now, new front end and new quarters installed.

Custom hood is about half complete waiting for final fitment around the LT1. The car will utilize the complete C7 suspension, traction control, ABS and other electronics. The Vehicle is 8" shorter and 9" narrower than the C7 so there will be significant modifications to the suspension. The photos of the Z51 C7 is the complete donor car, a GM early production (#6) car with ultra low miles.

Specs are TBD but the plan is a tube chassis with frame integrated suspension mounts, twin turbos, paddle shifters and a classy C2 update interior. Currently the body is being jigged for chassis design and fab. JRi Ride height adjustable shocks have been acquired for the build, Drive Shaft Shop is working on axles capable of handling the setup and a driveshaft ready for the beating.

I'll do my best to keep up with the thread. More at LegacyInnovations.com
