Vehicle Description
$60,000 invoice for just the restoration not including price of the
car. This is a real Super Sport, verified by the 138 in the vin
#.
EXTERIOR: The body was stripped to bare metal by hand. Any rust was
replaced with new body panels. 2 part primer was used and then
block sanded straight. Then they gave it a beautiful dark blue
metallic paint with a clear coat finish. It is glossy and smooth.
Upfront everything is new- the bumper, grill, trim on the hood,
emblems etc. Going down the sides the emblems, wheel well moldings,
trim around the windshield, door handles, around the convertible
opening are new. In back it has new bumper, tail lights, trim and
emblems. In the door jambs are glossy blue paint, new sill plates
and weatherstrips. The windows, window seals, regulators and
windshield are replaced. The black convertible top is like new. The
frame was painted and weatherstrips were replaced. The wheels are
aluminum 15 inch Weld Racing rims with BFG tires, bigger in back
for that muscle look.
INTERIOR: Inside the car was completely gutted, cleaned and sprayed
with sound deadener. Inside the doors were sprayed too. I like how
they restored the seats. The pattern and stitching is original but
they were made with fabric on the faces to be much more comfortable
on a hot day. New cushions so the fit is tight as a drum. The
carpets door panels window cranks handles armrests have all been
replaced the dash area is all restored you Chrome bezels new
steering wheel dash pad and mirror even the visors are new upgraded
with the Retro stereo there is an oil and water gauge mounted below
the dash
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Completely rebuilt as a 427. Upgraded with
aluminum intake, big Holley carb, MSD ignition system and a fat set
of coated headers. There's also an upgraded aluminum radiator and
shroud. All new heat and air conditioning system. The components
are new- the alternator, brake booster with dual master, wiper
motor etc.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It is all clean solid metal and painted with the
aqua spatter finish paint. Has a new trunk mat. Bottom of the trunk
lid and the jamb is painted smooth glassy blue. New weatherstrip,
jacking decal, the latches, nuts and bolts are cleaned. There is an
amplifier and custom speakers as part of the stereo system.
UNDERSIDE: The frame and suspension was sandblasted, primed and
painted. It was then reinstalled with new bushings, ball joints and
body mounts. New tie rod, center link, springs and shocks too. All
new brake system including lines, hoses, wheel cylinders, shoes,
springs and it was upgraded to disc in front. E-brake is hooked up.
The rear end was disassembled, cleaned and painted. It was given
new bearings and seals. Upgraded Edelbrock rear control arms. New
fuel tank, lines and pump. Rebuilt turbo 400 trans with new torque
converter. Has fat Flowmaster exhaust system. The floors were
restored (all metal) and treated with 3M undercoat.
This real SS has hardly any miles since finished. Great features,
it's a turn key car ready to drive and enjoy!
