funny the interior is my least favorite part about the car. The dressed up LS is a very nice touch and much better then all the other plastic that is on most of them. The wheels are very subtle and looks fine with the car. The interior not so much. But very well executed. Hope this is not a trailer queen
The engine detail was lost on most of the BJ buyers, and they walked past, Im hoping the SEMA crowd gets it.

I love this build and although it was but a small, minor piece, one of my favorite parts is the recessed tray with the wireless iPhone charger that replaced the speaker grill. Id buy one IMMEDIATELY if it was available in Navy blue.
Have fun at SEMA Rob....looking forward to working with you one day on my Suburban

I would say great build but I said it when you built it. Great build and I love the interior guy.

Glad the new owners are letting you show it. You did an excellent job as usual. Can’t wait to see the progress on your personal build.

Love everything about the build Rob. It looks like Mike made you another gorgeous set of wheels. They look stunning on that car and the stance is awesome! Hope to get mine from Mike soon (though they will be a little more subdued than what you did)!

Its going to be a little while before we get cracking on it, we have a 58 & 61 Restomod builds getting started along with 66 Travelall and a 66 Fastback Restomod. Going to start collecting parts while we are waiting on the chassis.

I got to meet and talk to Rob and check out the beautiful restomod Corvette today at the Sema show today as well as the super cool K5 Blazer. The attention to details and workmanship are outstanding. Just Wow!

I've got no comments on taste and choices - those are so subjective and you can't please them all - but the quality of work and the attention to detail is second to none.
I liked your comment where the BJ buyers looked at the engine and had no clues, but you went to such detailed effort to nod to the original details under the hood - even the AC compressor has that old Frigidaire appearance. That and all the updated originality in the interior as well.

This restomod looks beautiful and I especially like the wheels. I need all the information on those wheels as I am looking for new wheels for my restomod 66.

That looks gorgeous Rob! I really like the attention to detail in the engine area especially the sparkplug wires. I also love the interior.
Really nicely done.
BOTB could also be short for Best of the Best in my book!

I like all of the interior, except for the interior door pull, and attachment clip. To me, it's just not as well thought out as the rest of the interior, but to each, their own....
