Andrei Masonry LLC Brightens Up Corvette Restoration with Custom Lighting Solutions

Boring, OR – October 26, 2023 – Andrei Masonry LLC, a family-owned business based in Boring, Oregon, is quickly becoming a go-to source for classic car enthusiasts, particularly those restoring iconic Corvettes. While the name might suggest brick and mortar, Andrei Masonry has a surprising specialty: custom lighting solutions, specifically tailored for Chevrolet Corvettes of all generations. What started as a side project driven by a passion for cars has blossomed into a dedicated division catering to a nationwide clientele. “We’re builders at heart,” explains Andrei, the company’s founder. “My grandfather was a mason, my dad was a builder, and I’ve always been hands-on. I started restoring my own ‘63 Corvette a few years back, and quickly realized the stock lighting options just weren't cutting it. They were either dim, unreliable, or just didn't fit the look I was going for.” That frustration sparked an idea. Andrei, leveraging his fabrication skills and a deep understanding of electrical systems, began experimenting with LED technology, creating brighter, more efficient, and aesthetically pleasing lighting solutions for his own project. The results were so impressive that fellow Corvette owners started taking notice. “It started with friends asking me to do their lights,” Andrei recalls. “Then their friends, and then people started reaching out online. Suddenly, we had a real demand. We officially established a lighting division within Andrei Masonry LLC to meet that need.” Beyond Just Brighter: The Andrei Masonry Difference The Corvette community is notoriously particular, and Andrei Masonry understands this. They don’t just swap out old bulbs for LEDs; they design and fabricate complete lighting systems. This means everything from headlight and taillight assemblies to turn signals, marker lights, and even interior lighting. “A lot of companies sell ‘universal’ LED kits,” Andrei points out. “Those might fit, but they rarely look right on a classic Corvette. They often lack the period-correct styling and quality that owners demand. We specialize in making things look factory-original, but with the benefits of modern LED technology.” Their custom Corvette lighting offerings include: Headlight Conversions: They can convert stock headlight housings to accept modern LED bulbs, or fabricate entirely new housings for a specific look. Options include halo rings, projector lenses, and different color temperatures (warm white, cool white, etc.). They also offer sealed beam LED replacements that offer a direct fit with significant brightness improvements. Taillight Assemblies: Andrei Masonry produces complete taillight assemblies using modern LEDs, maintaining the original shape and lens design while providing significantly brighter and more reliable illumination. They offer various lens colors and finishes to match different Corvette models and year ranges. They’ve tackled even the notoriously difficult C2 (1963-1967) taillights, delivering solutions that address common failure points and improve visibility. Turn Signal & Marker Light Upgrades: They offer LED replacements for all turn signals and marker lights, available in a variety of styles and finishes. Options include sequential turn signals for a more modern look, and brighter, more visible lights for increased safety. Interior Lighting: From map lights and dome lights to instrument panel illumination, Andrei Masonry can upgrade all of a Corvette’s interior lighting with LEDs. They offer a range of colors and brightness levels to create the perfect ambiance. Custom Fabrication: Beyond these standard offerings, Andrei Masonry excels at custom fabrication. If a customer has a specific vision for their Corvette’s lighting, Andrei and his team can bring it to life. They've built one-off lighting systems for show cars and concours restorations, catering to the most discerning collectors. Why Choose Andrei Masonry for Corvette Lighting?

Recent Project Spotlight: 1967 C2 Corvette Restoration Recently, Andrei Masonry completed a lighting upgrade for a beautifully restored 1967 C2 Corvette. The owner wanted to maintain the car’s original appearance but improve visibility and reliability. Andrei and his team fabricated a complete set of LED taillight assemblies, replicating the original lens design but using modern LEDs for brighter illumination. They also upgraded the headlights with LED conversions, providing a significant improvement in nighttime driving safety. “The owner was thrilled with the results,” says Andrei. “He said the lights looked factory-original but provided a level of brightness he never thought possible. That’s exactly what we strive for.” Looking Ahead Andrei Masonry LLC is continuing to expand its Corvette lighting offerings, with new products and innovations on the horizon. They are also exploring opportunities to partner with other classic car restoration shops and enthusiasts. “We’re passionate about Corvettes, and we’re committed to providing our customers with the highest quality lighting solutions available,” says Andrei. “We want to help owners keep their classic cars shining bright for years to come.” Contact Information: ANDREI MASONRY LLC 31980 SE DAPHNE CT BORING, OR, 97009-9022 UNITED STATES 212-977-8599 [Website/Social Media Link - Placeholder.
