The AMP Smart team spent over six months meticulously restoring the vehicle, prioritizing authenticity while incorporating subtle upgrades for enhanced performance and reliability. “We didn’t want to change the character of the car, we wanted to enhance it,” explains Jake Miller, lead technician at AMP Smart. “It’s about retaining that classic feel, but making it a car you can confidently drive every day.” The restoration process began with a complete disassembly of the vehicle. The original chassis was inspected, reinforced where necessary, and repainted in its factory-correct shade of Cortez Silver. The original 350 cubic inch V8 engine was completely rebuilt, boasting increased horsepower and improved fuel efficiency thanks to modern components. The team opted for an upgraded cooling system to ensure reliable performance, even under demanding conditions. The interior received just as much attention. The original black vinyl interior was painstakingly restored, with new seat upholstery, carpeting, and door panels. The dashboard was refurbished, and all gauges were recalibrated to ensure accurate readings. AMP Smart even managed to source original-specification parts to maintain the car's authenticity. Where Classic Meets Cutting-Edge While preserving the car’s vintage appeal was paramount, AMP Smart didn't shy away from integrating modern technology. The goal wasn’t to make it look futuristic, but to improve the driving experience without sacrificing the classic vibe. Here’s what’s new under the hood – and beyond: Modern Sound System: A discreetly integrated, high-fidelity sound system with Bluetooth connectivity allows drivers to enjoy their favorite music without detracting from the car's interior aesthetics. The speakers are cleverly hidden within the original locations, and the head unit is designed to blend seamlessly with the dashboard. Hidden GPS Navigation: Forget bulky, aftermarket GPS devices. AMP Smart has integrated a state-of-the-art GPS navigation system that’s virtually invisible. The system operates through a smartphone app and projects directions onto the windshield, keeping the dashboard clutter-free. Upgraded Electrical System: The original electrical system was prone to issues. AMP Smart replaced it with a modern, reliable system, while maintaining the original wiring harnesses for authenticity. This ensures consistent performance and reduces the risk of electrical failures. Enhanced Lighting: While preserving the classic headlight design, AMP Smart upgraded the lighting system with modern LED bulbs. This provides brighter, more reliable illumination, improving visibility and safety. They also added subtle LED taillights for a modern touch. Performance Monitoring: A discreetly installed performance monitoring system provides real-time data on engine performance, allowing drivers to keep track of vital statistics. This information is accessible through a smartphone app. Keyless Entry & Start: For added convenience, AMP Smart has integrated a keyless entry and start system. This allows drivers to unlock and start the car without fumbling for keys. Backup Camera: A discreetly mounted backup camera provides added safety and visibility when reversing. The camera’s feed is displayed on the rearview mirror. More Than Just a Restoration – It’s a Statement “We’re not just restoring cars; we’re preserving a piece of American history,” says Sarah Johnson, CEO of AMP Smart. “We believe that classic cars should be enjoyed, and our goal is to make them more reliable, more comfortable, and more fun to drive.” This 1970 Corvette is a prime example of that philosophy. It's a beautifully restored classic that seamlessly blends vintage charm with modern technology. It's a car that will turn heads at car shows, but it's also a car you can confidently drive on a daily basis. Availability & Future Plans The fully restored 1970 Corvette is currently available for purchase. AMP Smart also offers custom restoration and technology integration services for a wide range of classic vehicles. The company is already working on several other exciting projects, including a 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback and a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air. AMP Smart plans to continue pushing the boundaries of classic car restoration, combining the best of the past with the innovation of the future. “We see a huge demand for these types of vehicles,” says Johnson. “People want to own a piece of history, but they also want the convenience and reliability of a modern car. We’re here to bridge that gap.” For more information about AMP Smart LLC and its services, please visit their website or contact them at 435-462-5376.
