The new owner of this car will have the oldest, rarest, fastest
and most well engineered car on the street. Real steel chevy body
with reher morrison chevy engine. 3x Super Chevy Winner and
DriveDuracell Coppertop Award winner (featured on Velocity
channel). Video of dyno test at 1067hp at 7500 rpm's. I prefer to
trailer, but this car is very dependable on long trips.
Includes miniature '32 (go-cart) electric start,
collectible antique Indian motorcycle foot rests, movable rear
mirrors and it goes 30 mph.
Here is a true one-of-a-kind. To begin, this is a rare 1932 Chevy
3-window coupe with its original steel body. When is the last time
you saw one of these? You have to go through a lot of Fords before
you can find one, due in part to the amount of wood Chevrolet used
in their construction. But neat as a 1932 Chevy may be, that's just
the starting point of this car.
What you are seeing is a 1000+ HP street rod that is fully proven
and well sorted out, not to mention fast (8.80 @ 153 mph in the
quarter mile). That 1932 body now sits on a chrome-moly frame that
is more suitable for the power this car generates. The car has been
chopped to give it a more streamlined look, and also has a
professionally built cage that nicely follows the contour of the
cabin. I especially like how the engine looks like a beast kept
behind bars.
Speaking of that engine, it displaces 565 cubic inches (4.6" bore,
4.25" stroke) and is loaded with the best of parts. The block is a
tall deck GM race piece and contains a Crower crankshaft, Ross
pistons, Ultradyne camshaft (0.710" lift), and Isky needleless
roller lifters. Heads are Dart Big Chief aluminum pieces with
Jessel rockers. There is also a Dart tunnel manifold topped by dual
Holley 1150 Dominators from Bigs. Other goodies include an Accusump
oil accumulator, 2-piece aluminum oil pan, and Titan adjustable oil
pump. Ignition is all MSD with a Digital-7 ignition with adjustable
timing, HVC coil, crank trigger, and front belt drive distributor.
Finally, there is a Moroso crankcase vacuum system, Jessel belt
drive, ATI damper, and Race Pump mechanical fuel pump with bypass
regulator. Even with a compression ratio of 11.24:1, the tune and
aluminum heads allow the use of pump gas.
Behind the monster power plant is a built TH400 transmission with
scatter shield, ceramic clutches, reverse manual valve body, and a
trans brake. The torque converter has a 4,000 rpm stall speed.
There is also a Moroso aluminum deep transmission pan and dual
transmission coolers. Control is provided through a Turbo Action
Cheetah SCS shifter. Out back is a built Ford 9" that presently
houses a Strange center section with 3.72 gears and a spool, along
with Mark Williams axles.
Brakes are discs all around, with JFZ in front and Mark Williams in
back. A line lock is also present. Front suspension uses a solid
axle with 4-link setup. Everything has been chrome plated,
including the steering components, headlights, and shocks. It all
looks great! Rear suspension is a fully adjustable 4-link with Koni
coilovers. Wheelie bars are also included (as is a window net). A
fuel cell is located in the trunk. Exhaust is a full 4" ceramic
coated system with cutouts (the car absolutely roars with these
open).
The interior is done with black seat covers, carpeting, door
panels, and flamed headliner. The dash and cage are the same yellow
as the rest of the car. There is a tilt steering column (which is
essential for getting in and out of a car like this) along with a
stereo. The car even has power windows! A full set of gauges is
present, including a GPS speedometer, Auto Meter Cobalt g-meter,
Auto Meter Ultimate playback tachometer, and knock sensor.
There are many superlatives to describe this Chevy. It's a riot
just to look at, while driving it is like nothing else. It draws a
crowd everywhere; people will pull alongside on the highway to try
and take pictures. But that's how it is when you're
one-of-a-kind.
