Our Story

A Passion
Born in a Garage

CorvetteRestoration.Com is a family-owned company in Elizabeth, IN. Just 20 minutes from Louisville, KY. What started as a young man tinkering in a garage body shop after grocery-store shifts grew into one of the world’s most respected Corvette restoration operations.

Larry always found a way back to cars. Eventually he found Corvettes, and Corvettes found him. Today, a team of over ten skilled craftspeople, including family members, carries that same passion into every build.

We offer complete body-off restorations guaranteed to be the most detailed anywhere, built with pride and expertise spanning model years 1953 to 1982.
