EXTERIOR: I refer to these as the Lamborghini of muscle cars with
it's exotic looks- massive hood scoops, rear wing and bold stripes.
This body has really clean, dry metal. Doors fit real nice. The
paint is outstanding, even along the bottom it has a mirror
reflection. The stripes are painted correctly which is not easy to
do, I have seen many not done right. The ram air hood is an
original- metal with fiberglass scoops. The mirrors are 1970 only,
they are pointed, not round. Upfront it does have all new chrome-
headlight bezels, bumper, trim and emblems. Grills are new. In back
it has new bumper with cutouts for the exhaust tips. New taillight
and reverse light lenses. The stainless trim all around the glass
is polished. New wheel well trim and door handles. The windshield
is new. The door jambs are real nice with slick paint, new sill
plates and weatherstrips. This car has SS lll wheels with new trim
and BFG tires.
INTERIOR: The seats have been reupholstered. Door panels, armrests,
carpets, headliner, headrests, seat backs, chrome seat trim,
handles and cranks are all new. Original seat belts are in really
nice condition. It has a rare 4 speed console. Features include the
rally pack gauges and cool the Tick Tock Tachometer. It also has a
tilt column with the sport steering wheel.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The 455 was completely rebuilt and has a clean
coat of the correct aqua paint. New chrome valve covers and air
cleaner. All the components look new- new sending units, coil,
wires, alternator, power steering hoses, battery cables, Optima
battery, radiator, shroud, wiper motor etc. Rebuilt carb. New
cadium plated brake booster, master and lines. The fire wall and
core support is painted smooth. It is a very fresh and tidy motor
compartment.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Spotlessly clean metal with a coat of spatter
paint. The jamb and bottom of lid is painted real nice. New
weatherstrip and jacking decal.
UNDERSIDE: The body was removed from the chassis. The floors, frame
rails, braces are all clean metal with a nice coat of semi gloss
black paint. The frame and suspension was blasted and painted too.
Front end is completely rebuilt- new bushings, ball joints, sway
bar, shocks etc. New disc brakes. In back it has the boxed control
arms and sway bar. Has 12 bolt 3.55 posi. New bushings, shocks,
springs etc. Upgraded to disc brakes in back with drilled rotors.
The bottom of the motor and trans is spotless. New Hurst shift
linkage. Has a new fat custom exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers and
the correct trumpet tips going out through the rear bumper.
Everything is new under this car- fuel tank and straps, lines,
u-joints, e-brake cables, starter and more.
This is an exceptionally clean, high quality restoration that needs
just a few things to be completed. The owner went way over budget
and is done. There are some stress cracks in the fiberglass hood.
The hood can easily be adjusted, missing bumpers. Dash pad has
cracks, console missing an insert and a radio needs to be
purchased. This is minor considering how nice the rest of the car
is. It runs strong, drives tight. I love that deep, lopey 442
sound!
