Description
The owner calls this a 1937 Bella Elan Luxury Sport Coupe
The Bella Elan is actually titled as a 1988 C4 Corvette and is powered by a very strong 1998 Corvette LS1 V8 engine with its matching 1998 automatic transmission. The front suspension and steering assembly is from a 1988 C4 Corvette as is the rear suspension and drive train. The air conditioned driver cockpit is all steel with a full roll cage built into the design, has steel beam crash bars in each door and was created from a 2001 Audi TT cockpit that was narrowed about nine inches. The body sits upon a custom built cross braced frame that connects the front and rear C4 components.
The fenders are from a 1937 Chevy with the remainder of the body being custom fabricated from fiberglass. The running boards are solid Teak finished off in several layers of varnish and urethane clear coat. This 1930s ear art-deco luxury style coupe consumed 6,000 hours to complete the project. The owner wanted a one of a kind dream car and from the looks of it he certainly achieved his goal. Beautiful automobile in which everything fits just like it should and no shortcuts were taken.
