We will start off with the exterior of the Corvette. When restored it was covered in the House of Kolors Cimarron Red paint that's base coat clear coat. It's been buffed and polished to a deep rich shine that's slick as a ribbon! Accenting the red is the chrome and stainless that's all in excellent condition.

Opening the door, the first thing you'll notice is the seats have been redone and covered in Leather. Also, the door panels and carpet were replaced at the time of the Restoration. Before you sit down notice this Vette has the Flaming River Tilt Column with the Waterfall Steering Wheel. Looking at the dash you'll notice it's in excellent condition and that the gauges are working along with the Clock.

This interior is impressive on its own but paired with the rest of this 'Vette makes it something extra special.
