Timeless Kustoms has built some impressive bespoke muscle cars over the years but its latest custom 1954 Corvette ZR1 may be its crowning achievement. Named the Death Star, this automotive masterpiece is completely unique and features a host of upgrades in both the exterior and interior. The exterior features a stunning cyber gray metallic paint as well as a new polycarbonate window in the hood. The body has been largely preserved for its iconic Corvette look, but Timeless Kustoms did give the car a new chassis with C6 front suspension and a three-link rear suspension.
Under the hood of the 1954 Corvette ZR1 is a supercharged V8 LS9 that is capable of delivering 590-horsepower to the wheels. The wheels themselves are outfitted with Brembo carbon ceramic brakes and are comprised of three-piece forged metal.
