This Corvair’s restomod work was a collaboration between Fast Freddie and Midwest Metalworks, where the latter designed and fabricated a full custom chassis. It is complemented by the suspension system from a Chevy Corvette C5, ensuring the wheels stay planted on the road. After all, the project was said to be “built for serious road-racing track duty.”
The restored Corvair makes use of Chevy’s 6.2-liter LS3 engine good for 600 horsepower, bringing a new life to the classic. Since the builder added a rear differential, the engine is still sending power to the rear wheels, now through a 6-speed T-56 manual gearbox.
