Vehicle Description
Virtually everyone knows Chevrolet as one of Detroit's legendary
muscle car divisions. What they might not know is that the brand's
storied muscle car pedigree actually started when GM began mounting
hot small block power in plush people movers like this stylish 1955
210. The very definition of class, this pleasing pro-tourer wraps
custom burgundy skin around custom leather, a hot LS3 and a choice
Roadster Shop chassis. For fans of '50s metal, it doesn't get much
better than a tri-five Chevy. And if you're an enthusiast who's
itching for an all-American cruiser that's sure to be the star of
every show around, this sweet sedan is your kind of classic!
AGGRESSIVE OPULENCE
Built to turn heads and kick asphalt, this impressive Chevy is the
beneficiary of a detailed, ground-up restoration that, less than
500 miles back, wrapped solid sheetmetal in striking metallic
2-stage. At the front of those svelte aesthetics, a smoothed bumper
guards a polished grille, stainless-trimmed parking lamps and
modern tri-bar headlights. At the top of that grille, a nosed hood
flows to capped wipers, which front a stainless-trimmed 'post'
greenhouse. At the base of that restoration-fresh glass, a
strategically shaved profile aligns traditional door handles with
ornate speed spears. And at the back of the car, a second smoothed
bumper reflects a decked trunk and slick LED tail lamps, one of
which electronically reveals the car's factory fuel filler.
CHEVROLET PERFORMANCE POWER
Pop this 210's stylish hood and you'll find a hot Chevrolet
Performance LS3 that, like the car's restoration, is fresh and
ready to roll. One of the most well rounded crate engines Chevrolet
offers, the LS376/480 utilizes aluminum construction, L92-style
heads and a racing-inspired Hot Cam to mix miles of thrills with
years of reliable cruising. And, churning stout 10.7 to 1
compression into 495 horsepower and 473 lb./ft. of torque, the
smooth-revving mill is certainly no slouch in the performance
department! Smoothed, Inferno Red fuel rail shrouds complement a
compact Inferno Red air tube. Factory serpentine components spin a
monochromatic water pump between a monochromatic alternator and a
monochromatic AC compressor. There's a polished Griffin radiator
that's fitted with big SPAL puller fans. A proven Wilwood master
cylinder flanks a convenient Wilwood proportioning valve. Pliable
GM plug wires join a Holley oil pan and tidy Hooker headers to
detail an otherwise purpose-built performer. And everything rides
in a custom, body-matched engine bay that's finished with Billet
Specialties hood supports and a polished radiator support.
RS
Under the car, traditional tri-five bones have been replaced with a
sturdy Roadster Shop Fast Track chassis that's fabricated around
boxed, 10-gauge frame rails. Those bones make excellent use of
sixth-generation Corvette hubs, sixth-generation Corvette spindles,
Penske-engineered coil-overs and a 4-bar, large-diameter rear-clip.
That clip gets pushed by a 9-inch Strange axle that's finished with
a posi-traction differential and 31-spline axles. Shifts get dealt
by a 4L70E 4-speed automatic transmission. Turns are tight thanks
to power rack-and-pinion steering and a splined, 1.25-inch sway
bar. Stops are provided by bright Wilwood calipers, which squeeze a
total of 20 pistons around a quartet of drilled and slotted rotors.
Spent gases float from the aforementioned headers to custom,
large-diameter pipes, which pass through deep BORLA ProXS mufflers.
And the car sits low and mean on chromed Coys wheels, which spin
225/45R18 Nankang Sportnex in front of 275/40ZR18 Sumitomo HTR
ZIIIs.
STUNNING CUSTOMIZATION
Open this Chevy's doors and you'll find a killer cockpit that mixes
miles of custom leather with the best conveniences of a modern
commuter. Front and center, a gorgeous dash seats bowtie-stamped
trim around glowing Dakota Digital VHX telemetry and cool Vintage
Air conditioning. Speaking of seating, the car's passengers ride a
quartet of plush buckets that, together, trace a custom,
full-length console. Sculpted side panels point stylish, billet
handles in front of power-operated windows. Tunes are kept steady
thanks to a sophisticated JVC head unit. And the driver feels the
road through a short Lokar shifter and a color-keyed Flaming River
Waterfall that laps a polished, tilting column.
This slick Chevy is a super cool pro-tourer that'll easily be the
center of attention wherever it roams. With its smooth V8, athletic
chassis and tailored aesthetics, it represents the pinnacle of
American style both new and old. Looking for a top-notch classic to
enjoy for years to come? Your search is officially over!
