The GT. Corvette GT, by Mancuso.
Timeless Corvettes engineered for today, by Mancuso.
The concept
A vintage Corvette, transformed into a modern grand tourer.
The GT concept is a dedicated build program for C2 and C3 Corvettes, engineered to be dependable, comfortable and genuinely daily-usable. Drive it to work, take it to dinner, or run it across the country without a second thought, all while preserving the iconic shape that makes it a Corvette.
Created and backed by Mancuso: over a century in sales, service, performance, international Corvette racing and collector vehicles.
The program spans two generations

GT · C2 · 1963–1967
Timeless shape, effortless drive.
C2s are inherently more collectible, so the focus is curated upgrades and tasteful reliability, while preserving originality.
Chassis & brakes
Frame and known stress points inspected and repaired. New four-wheel disc brakes with fresh lines; new bushings, joints and gas shocks tuned for stability and comfort over harshness.
Powertrain & driveline
Mild, torque-focused calibration with electronic ignition. Meticulous carburetor setup, or discreet EFI on non-numbers-matching cars, plus overdrive to lower cruise RPM.
Cabin & tech
Targeted sound and heat control with original-style A/C controls retained. Re-foamed seats and a retro-look radio hiding Bluetooth, hands-free calling and charging.

GT · C3 · 1968–1982
The long‑legged Corvette.
Chassis & brakes
Frame, birdcage and body mounts addressed at known corrosion zones. Full suspension refresh tuned sport-touring, controlled yet compliant, with upgraded brakes and stainless lines.
Powertrain & driveline
Modern fuel injection as the standard spec for consistent running. Broad mid-range torque, a free-flowing low-drone exhaust, and overdrive matched to the rear gearing.
Comfort & sound control
Extensive insulation at the firewall, tunnel and bulkhead to defeat heat-soak. Available high-output A/C, with interior upgrades including re-foamed seats and a backup camera.
Who the GT is for
For drivers who love the soul of a vintage Corvette, but demand the manners of a modern one.
Drive it, don’t store it.
A Corvette for the commute, not just the occasional sunny weekend.
Take the real trip.
Long road trips, in real weather, with real confidence.
Give up nothing.
Classic styling with reliable starts, working instrumentation, strong brakes and quiet highway manners.
