In a thrilling showcase of automotive prowess, JR Garage unveils their latest acquisition - a jaw-dropping 1969 Resto mod Stingray. This space-themed custom build exudes power and style, featuring a monstrous LS7 crate engine, carbon fiber accents, and a one-of-a-kind paint job that screams bespoke craftsmanship. With Forge Line Wheels and Wilwood brakes adding to its allure, this Corvette is a true showstopper that demands attention at every turn. Purchased from a renowned New York shop, this Resto mod underwent a meticulous frame-off restoration, ensuring every detail is perfection personified.
Driving this beauty back from Long Island to Arizona, the JR Garage team encountered minor suspension issues, promptly addressed by a specialized Chandler shop. Boasting 6,200 miles post-restoration, this Resto mod not only looks the part but also delivers a driving experience like no other. With its Tremec 5-speed transmission and comfortable interior, including carbon fiber-backed sports seats, this Stingray is a blend of classic charm and modern performance. Despite needing some elevation-based tuning, likely due to its New York origins, this Corvette remains a thrilling ride that captivates onlookers wherever it goes.
As the team contemplates consigning this masterpiece to the prestigious Barrett Jackson auction, the stakes are high, and the excitement palpable. With mirrors strategically placed to showcase the intricate suspension and the mesmerizing Billy Boat exhaust, the Resto mod garners a crowd of enthusiasts eager to witness its magnificence up close. The following day sees the Corvette on display, ready to go under the hammer at no Reserve, promising a thrilling spectacle for all in attendance. JR Garage's latest creation is not just a car; it's a testament to passion, craftsmanship, and the enduring allure of classic automotive design.
