The custom cars are overflowing with creativity, making it nearly impossible to stay on top of every unique build.
However, some projects rise above the rest, achieving a level of fame that sets them apart. Kindig-It Design, the renowned shop behind the popular “Bitchin’ Rides” show, consistently produces such vehicles.
Their expertise lies in reimagining classic cars, from Fords and Chevys to Dodges and Mercedes-Benz. But perhaps their most celebrated creations are the CF1 roadsters. These stunning vehicles pay homage to the 1953 Corvette, boasting a sleek carbon fiber body and a powerful V8 engine.
Introduced in 2021, the CF1 line marked a shift for Kindig-It, allowing them to produce these coveted cars in a semi-production manner.
With each of the eleven (and counting) CF1 roadsters meticulously crafted and one-of-a-kind, these machines are not only head-turners but also valuable collector’s items.
Nicknamed after the staff carried by the Greek god Hermes, the CF12 boasts a sleek, redesigned Corvette body crafted from carbon fiber. The smooth curves and single piece rounded windshield give the car a more streamlined appearance compared to the original design.
Polished five-spoke wheels with hubcaps complete the exterior look. Under the hood lies a powerful Lingenfelter LS V8 engine featuring a polished stack intake. While most CF12s came equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission, a limited number of manual versions were also produced.
The dual exhaust system ensures efficient engine breathing, while disc brakes on all four wheels provide ample stopping power. The fiery red paint job complements the luxurious saddle leather interior, which features bucket seats, a two-spoke flat-bottom steering wheel, and classic black dial gauges.
