Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to present this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette, a Bill Dawson-built two-top restomod that blends classic Corvette style with modern performance, comfort, and drivability.
This Corvette has the unmistakable look of an early C2, but underneath, it has been treated to a serious list of upgrades. The frame features a Corvette Correction black powder-coated package with a Dana 36 rear end and 3.07 gears, giving this classic a more modern foundation and confident road manners. From the stance to the details, this Corvette has the kind of presence that makes it easy to appreciate before you even turn the key.
Power comes from a GM LS3 crate engine rated at 430 horsepower, paired with a GM 4L65E automatic transmission. A Vintage Air chrome front runner system gives the engine bay a clean custom appearance, while the automatic transmission and custom console shifter make this Corvette easy to enjoy around town or out on the open road. This setup gives the car modern muscle with a smooth, driver-friendly feel.
The braking system has also been upgraded with four-wheel disc brakes, including C6 front components and C4 rear components. Drilled and slotted rotors, red calipers, and an electric brake booster help bring this Corvette to a stop with added confidence. Chrome Corvette wheels with Michelin tires complete the look and give the car a clean, performance-minded stance.
Inside, the saddle tan premium leather interior brings a warm and refined look to the cabin. The custom console features a glove box and drink holders, adding convenience without taking away from the car's classic personality. Custom fiberglass door panels, door pockets, courtesy lighting, Dakota Digital gauges with shift indicator, and an Ididit chrome tilt steering column with hazard knob give the interior a polished and updated feel.
Comfort and convenience were clearly part of the build as well. This Corvette is equipped with Vintage Air Gen 4 air conditioning, power windows, power windshield wipers, Detroit Speed headlight motors, new window glass, and a new windshield. The bumpers have been rechromed, and the stainless trim has been polished or replaced, helping the exterior shine with the right classic Corvette attitude.
With its Bill Dawson build, two-top setup, LS3 power, upgraded chassis, automatic transmission, four-wheel disc brakes, custom saddle tan leather interior, and modern comfort features, this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette is a beautifully upgraded classic that is ready to be seen, heard, and enjoyed.
