About Us
CorvetteRestoration.Com is a family-owned-and-operated company located in Elizabeth, IN. Located only 20 minutes away from Louisville, KY, the company is headed by the husband-and-wife team of Larry Bartley, Sr. and Loretta Bartley who have been in business together for over 56 years.
Since he was a young man, Larry always enjoyed cars. While stocking shelves in a grocery store during the day, at night, he would spend time working on cars in a body shop he set up in his garage. After doing that for some time, he began working at a local body shop. Once he gained enough experience, he opened up his own business and began working on hot rods, street rods, and classic cars. He found he most enjoyed working on Corvettes. Eventually, he began solely working on Corvettes and after a couple of years, founded CorvetteRestoration.Com.
Since founding the company, Larry and Loretta have built the business and currently employ over a ten people with varying skill sets, including family members. Not only is Larry highly skilled in restoring Corvettes, but he is passionate about them and enjoys making them look brand-new for their owners.
