[PICS] Bitchin' Rides Star Dave Kindig Shows Off 1953 Corvette Concept at SEMA


One of our favorite TV shows is “Bitchin’ Rides,” with host Dave Kindig of Kindig-It Design, especially when he’s working on Corvettes.

Today, Dave will be hanging out at the Lingenfelter Performance booth from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. signing autographs and taking pictures, as the week-long 2021 SEMA Show comes to a close in Las Vegas.

The star of the SEMA Show this year, of course, has been the forthcoming 2023 Corvette Z06, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t a lot of other cool cars scrambling to get a piece of the spotlight.

One such vehicle is this 1953 Corvette concept car that the guys at Kindig-It came up with – No. 2 in their CF1 Roadster series.

Each car in the series will feature one-of-a-kind exterior colors and interior contrasts designed specifically for each owner.

This one features so many cool touches it’s hard to say which one is our favorite.

The entire body is made of carbon fiber and was designed by Kindig-It Design and manufactured by Doug’s Performance Corvettes.

Under the hood, a Lingenfelter Performance LS7 427 V8 engine with Borla 8 Stack Injection produces a whopping 673 horsepower with 618 lb-ft of torque.
