Ready for the Road

A lot of work went into creating this custom 2002 Corvette Z06. From its custom bodywork to its firebreathing powerplant, this Z06 is totally original and ready for the road. If it's piqued your interest then you'll be happy to know it's going up for auction soon.

Drivetrain

Propelling this beauty is a Lingenfelter 5.7-liter V8 engine. All of this unit's power is sent to the rear wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission.

A Special Engine

The powerplant for this Z06 was ordered in 2008 through Motor Sport Image & Performance. It's been paired with an ATI supercharger and, as a result, pumps out a tire-shredding 810 horsepower.

Bodywork

The body mold for this Corvette is a custom creation by automotive designer Ken Grant of Blue Dot Design. All of the panels are made from carbon fiber which helps to keep the car's total weight down.

New Dimensions

The custom mold used on this Z06 has resulted in entirely new dimensions. The car is now two inches longer, four inches wider at the back, and 3 inches wider at the front. There's no mistaking this Corvette for the standard model.

Fresh Paint

It's not just this car's dimensions that make it stand out, its paintwork plays a large part too. Covering this Z06 is a Candy Brandywine two-stage paint job which was completed by Doug Reed of Auto Paint and Body.
