This '38 Chevy Business Coupe (also known as a 38 Special) is one
of those Hot-rods that really speaks for it's self! Smooth, sleek
design, finished in bright red, and with a performance stance that
commands attention sitting still or cruisin' down the
road.
This particular '38 is as clean as can be, and with the classic
butterscotch leather interior well complimented by the Viper red
paint, you can be assured that this Hot rod will garner attention,
and put smiles on everyone's face whether at a car show, cruise-in,
sitting in front of your favorite restaurant, or driving around
town.
Of course, that's only the half of it...Turn the key to this Coupe
and wake up the 350 to hear a very sweet sounding cam, chomping
high performance sound bites through the crisp dual exhaust.
Cruising down the interstate anywhere the road takes you is fine
too, as this well groomed hot rod has overdrive, so you'll not only
be cruising as fast as the Freeway allows, but you'll be obtaining
some decent fuel economy as well.
C-4 Corvette seats will only add to the comfort and driving
pleasure of this clean updated hot rod, as does the custom cold A/C
in the summer, and heat in the winter.
With just 6,454 miles on the build of this Special coupe, you can
be assured of reliability in the event you might want to venture
out of town on a long distance road trip, or hit some car shows
you've never been to before.
Beautiful paint, beautiful interior, strong, reliable engine and
drive-train, easy to drive, and comfortable all day long. If you
can only have one hot rod, this should be it. If you own multiple
cars, you probably won't be driving them much with this '38 Special
at your disposal!
