Vehicle Description

Only 463 miles on a body off frame, $75,000 restoration! Clean and simple but has what you want- a/c, power steering and brakes!

Step side bed, metal windshield visor and 1957 hood ribs. Painted a smooth and glossy Arctic Diamond White. New chrome grill, bumpers, taillights, and headlight bezels. All new glass eliminating the vent windows for a clean look, all new weatherstrips. Rolling proud on 17 inch chrome American Racing Special Edition wheels wrapped in Kumho tires.

INTERIOR: Professionally done interior. The seat was rebuilt, recushioned and reupholstered. Upholstered door panels, headliner, and visors too. The inside was stripped to bare metal and repainted to match the exterior. Custom white face gauges in a billet bezel. Bluetooth retro stereo with 6x9s behind the seat. Upgraded electric Vintage Air controls. IDidIt tilt column with a deluxe style 56 Chevy steering wheel.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: 350 motor bored to 355. Inside it has a street/strip rotating assembly, hydraulic cam, double roller timing, Elgin rockers, Melling oil pump etc. Bolted on is a set of aluminum Edelbrock heads, dual plane aluminum intake, MSD ignition and headers. It is fully dressed and polished parts including the valve covers, pulleys, timing cover, alternator, compressor, and fuel pump. The power brake and steering are chrome. It runs cool with an aluminum water pump, radiator, and an electric fan. Passengers are kept comfortable with a Vintage Air heat and a/c system. The engine bay is clean metal painted gloss white and there's a Chevrolet filler panel under the hood.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Hand finished oak bed with polished hardware and strips. Flush mount fuel filler. Inside the box is clean and straight painted gloss white.

UNDERSIDE: Body was off the frame. It has been updated with a Camaro front clip. All the steering and suspension was new or rebuilt. Great sounding dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers and turn down tail pipes right at the rear end. Custom aluminum fuel tank was relocated under the truck. It has disc brakes in front, drum in back. Looking up at the motor it has a chrome oil pan, a high torque starter and new flywheel cover. Revenger 700R-4 overdrive automatic by Animal Performance will handle up to 700 hp. Camaro 10 bolt rear end. Everything was sandblasted and painted, it still looks very fresh.

SERVICE: We inspect every car, and we spent $1,990 servicing this one. It got new spark plugs, steering rag joint, brake cylinders and shoes. We realigned the pulleys, replaced the belts, shimmed the starter, adjusted the shift linkage, repaired a headlight connection and repaired the seat tracks.

This is a full blown custom truck with all the upgrades but it has a clean subtle look. Truly ready for show and go!

I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year membership.
