Show Car!
Berger Chevrolet (The Grand Rapids MI Muscle Car Dealer of the
60's) Sponsored building this performance/show car Dubbed "project
DZ-74" inspired by the original IROC series Race cars that began in
1974 for the original owner. 1st shown at the Grand Rapids Auto
Rama January 2009. The car has been a trailer queen since and only
been driven about 2,000 miles.
Exterior: Berger Chevrolet prepared the Z/28' Type LT Rust-free
body. They smoothed it out and grafted a functional '80 cowl scoop
onto the '74 hood. Painted in its original midnight blue with
multi-color accent stripes. The car is Laser straight and glossy
top to bottom. Up front it has the removable IROC spoiler and
Marchel headlights. A set of 17-inch polished Team III Minilite
wheels dress it up. 8-inch-wide in front, 9 inch in back with
performance tires. All original glass as well.
Interior: The Type LT only interior is mostly all original. It has
a new dash pad with A/C vents, Signature series Mark Donahue
leather steering wheel, upgraded Vintage Air system. Alpine audio
system has 6 speakers. Black carpets with Dyna mat throughout. The
center console houses the Hurst shifter. Up above it has a new
headliner, working dome light, key buzzer and has been given all
new Painless wiring as well.
Engine Compartment: The Original #'s matching L-82 350 was rebuilt,
balanced and blueprinted. It was tuned at 360 hp, 425 lbs. of
torque. It has set of port matched heads, FAST port fuel injection
system on an Edelbrock intake. It also has a Crane Ignition system
and Cyclone AR-1 headers. It runs cool with a 4-core aluminum
radiator, dual electric fans, and new polished aluminum serpentine
system. The engine compartment is show quality. A lighter Mulsanne
Blue is used throughout the engine bay, firewall and complete
underside. The T-56 6-Speed really adds to the Fun factor as
well!
Trunk Compartment: Wears its original spatter paint and mat.
Battery is relocated there as well. Bottom of lid and jamb are
painted as nice as the rest of the car.
Underside: Suspension is all rebuilt with too many upgrades to
list. Up front has adjustable Global West suspension, larger sway
bar and 12:1 quick ratio steering box. In back it has 2-inch
lowered Detroit springs and Koni gas shocks and sway bar. Rear end
was smoothed, powder coated and finned aluminum cover. It has 3.73
posi gears with Auburn axles. SSBC disc brakes at all 4 wheels with
drilled and slotted rotors. The Front and back are tied together
with welded in Global West frame connectors. The bottom of engine
has an extra capacity chrome oil pan and high torque starter. Trans
was upgraded with a T-56 6 speed, centerforce hydraulic clutch,
Global West trans and subframe mounts and aluminum driveshaft. The
fat 3-inch pypes exhaust system sounds awesome. Fuel tank, sending
unit and straps were replaced. The floors are clean original
owner's manual, protect-o-plate and more! Honestly, I could go on
and on about this car, but you really need to look at all the
details and take a ride in the Canyon Carver!
It is ready for car shows, cruise-in's or stop lights. Its ready
for some great road time. If you want some excitement find a windy
road, it handles like a sports car. Find some red lights, when they
turn green, tromp on it and watch the cowl induction in action. The
Overdrive trans and Vintage Air system makes it wonderfully
comfortable for those relaxed days.
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.
