Customers' Cars
 

With our new site format, I'm finally at a point where I can add a section for Builder's Projects.  Please feel free to email me with any photos and/or tech info on your project and we'll add it to the list.  Here, at Dobbertin Performance we are thrilled to be a part of so many quality projects and can't wait to see what's next.  

 

Through the years, I've received hundreds of project photos from scores of builders – and I have kept them in a special folder to add at a later date.  Well, that later date has finally arrived.

 

In regard to the order they will be listed, I searched other sites and tried to do it as fairly as possible.  The original list will be comprised of both company projects and personal projects, listed alphabetically by the company's first name or the first letter of the builder's last name.  Once I am caught up, the information will be added in the order that they are received.

​

PLEASE NOTE: On our Homepage, under DRIVETRAIN CONFIGURATIONS, we explain the four TYPES of drivetrain layouts that will easily work with our Corvette Interface Adapters.

​

TYPE ONE: Front Engine / Conventional Transmission / Driveshaft / Differential

​

​

​

TYPE TWO: Front Engine / Corvette Torque Tube / Corvette C5/C6 Transaxle 

​

​

​

TYPE THREE: Mid Engine / Camaro Bellhousing / Corvette C5/C6 Transaxle

​

​

​

TYPE FOUR: Mid Engine / Mendeola, Albins or Weddle aftermarket Transaxles  

 

Thank you for your interest in our products.
