Ex-John Travolta LS7-Powered 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod

Description

In 1964, the Corvette’s styling evolved from the previous year’s split rear window and faux hood vents, making the ’64 both unique and distinctive. And beneath the surface, upgrades to the fully independent suspension included variable-rate springs and recalibrated shocks, which improved both ride comfort and handling precision.

The 1964 Corvette appealed to both weekend cruisers and serious drivers, offering options including air conditioning, an AM/FM radio, and numerous color and trim combinations — ensuring each car reflected its owner’s style. Sales hit 22,229 units, with the Convertible leading the way as the most popular choice.

Formerly owned by actor John Travolta, this example retains its classic convertible styling — however, nearly everything on this restomod has been modernized with premium-quality parts and materials. Its foundation is an Art Morrison chassis, which has been enhanced with a performance coil over suspension and Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes. This Vette is powered by a fuel-injected 7.0-liter LS7 reported to produce 540 horsepower, backed by a five-speed manual transmission and a 3.55-geared rear end.

The body was refreshed with 10 coats of gray paint and House of Kolor clearcoat, and wears a big block-style stinger hood, black stripes, and a black convertible top. 18” knock off-style wheels wrapped in Continental tires combine classic looks and modern performance.

The luxurious bucket-seat interior has been finished in premium diamond-stitch leather upholstery, with factory-look Daytona weave carpet. Additional upgrades include a full suite of vintage-look Dakota Digital gauges, a tilt steering column with a Billet Specialties wheel, a Hurst shifter, and a modern head unit with a 600-watt amplifier and six JL Audio speakers.

This 1964 Chevrolet Corvette is now offered on dealer consignment with a clean Florida title.
