Now that the rear floor has been completed, the interior cabin has been sprayed with Lizard Skin for both ceramic (heat reducing) and sound deadening using both products as allowed by the manufacturer. The underbody will receive the same treatment with exception of the wheel wells that will have a smooth black finish.




The chassis has just come back from the muffler shop. Thanks to fellow Corvette forum member PW2006 for sharing his ideas from his 63 Roadster RestoMod. The pipes on my 64 are 2.5” aluminized and custom bent to fit the Street Shop C6 chassis. My concern from the onset was getting the pipes over the rear end but as you will see from the pictures, the guys were able to achieve it. From the rear, Magnaflow stainless steel mufflers are used and will later be finished off with 2x2 Magnaflow stainless tips that will come out the center of the customized rear valence.








Here is a neat shot of the body off the chassis. The body will be painted within a week or so now that I have decided on the color – VICTORY RED (Corvette color).
