535hp LT1-Powered 1961 Corvette by Heartland Customs
Heartland Customs has masterfully blended modern performance with classic aesthetic in their latest build — a 1961 Corvette. This striking restomod features an LT1 crate motor delivering 535hp, mated to a Tremec TKX five-speed manual transmission. The build employs an Art Morrison chassis for enhanced rigidity, independent suspension with double-adjustable coilovers, and six-piston Baer brakes for supreme handling and stopping power. The Corvette retains its original visual appeal, with subtly extended rear quarter panels and custom 18-inch wheels styled after the originals. Interior upgrades include European leatherwork, Dakota Digital gauges, and a RetroSound stereo with modern connectivity options. Sculpt Garage has reimagined the interior to blend classic looks with modern conveniences.
