I have always thought the 53 Chevy makes a good looking hot rod.
The bulging body panels when given some meaty tires and a good
stance make a great look. This one has good ingredients and it's
from a good owner. He is a collector that knows how build and
maintain them.
EXTERIOR: Very clean body. Every panel is straight, no rust or
damage. The paint is polished to a smooth high gloss finish. All
the chrome looks brilliant. The side moldings and emblems were
removed for a clean look. Tinted glass, darker in back. Great
looking polished wheels with fatter tires on the rear for a nice
stance.
INTERIOR: The metal has all been repainted a satin gray finish.
Good looking set of Stewart Warner gauges were installed with a hot
rod style Sun tachometer on the dash. Knobs, heat- a/c controls and
vents were neatly installed. Beautiful steering wheel has polished
wood rim and aluminum spokes and it is on a tilt wheel. Very
comfortable seating upholstered in gray tweed. Door panels
upholstered to match. Has gray cloth headliner and visors, dome
light works. Has seatbelts front and rear. Yes, that's a 4-speed
sticking out of the floor!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Has a GM crate 350-275 hp motor. Very reliable
runner. Has aluminum intake and Holley carb. Has heat and air
conditioning system that works. Also has power steering. The entire
compartment is dolled up nice with chrome. Runs cool with the help
of an aluminum Griffin radiator with a shroud.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Has carpeted floor with bound edges.
UNDERSIDE: Very solid floors, rockers and frame. Upfront it has
Mustang II independent suspension with coil over gas shocks and
rack & pinion steering. Bottom of the motor is clean. Has heavy
duty bell housing and a Muncie M-21 4-speed. Uses a hydraulic
clutch. In back it has a Ford 9 inch rear with posi gears. It also
has tubular control arms and air shocks. Has full exhaust out the
back with Flowmaster mufflers and dumps. Has disc brakes at all
four wheels.
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.
