Vehicle Description
You probably stopped to look at this 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Pro
Touring because you know you've seen it somewhere before. It's a
true star car that has done everything, including SEMA, television
shows, and the cover of Hot Rod (we even have a copy to prove it!)
This is a full custom done by Year One and Brewer Restoration and
Performance, and so that means the best parts went into the build.
Then, they decided to showcase this 500hp big block machine
everywhere. So dig into al the details on your opportunity to take
home something that's sleek, unique, and absolutely a
celebrity.
A build like this gets planned out well in advance. We even have
the concept drawings that were the basis for this awesome two-tone.
Blue Blood Red and Orion Silver are some of the boldest hues from
House of Kolor, and they are expertly applied on this Chevelle.
There's even a thin yellow pinstripe separating them, and it turns
into a flame on the rear fenders...oh yes, they really went into
the details here. The '67 Chevelle is a great place to start for a
custom car because it is right at the intersection of classic style
and muscular features. And when Year One is going to do a build,
they make sure the body as awesome as possible. This has a very
cool and modern style that expertly shaves the badging, and the
bumpers are painted silver. The presentation removes a lot of the
excess. This allows your eyes to fully appreciate classic elements
like the flying buttress roof line, as well as custom pieces like
the tall cowl hood. The final piece to this total custom package is
a stance that's absolutely perfect. The Billet Specialties wheels
have e a classic look but a modern size. And the staggered
17/18-inch front/rear setup with extra wide rear rubber emphasizes
that there is serious power coming from the rear.
When you think of Year One, you think of competition-ready
components, and so the interior is a professional setup. The fully
integrated red package includes leather high-back front bucket
seats, gForce five-point racing belts, and a custom 12-point roll
cage that keeps the back seat usable. The center console houses a
digital air/fuel mixture readout, a full panel of race-ready toggle
switches, and a Hurst ratchet shifter. The Billet Specialties
steering wheel is mounted on a Flaming River tilt column, and it
gives you a clear view to the professional grade AutoMeter Pro-Comp
Ultra-Lite full gauge package. And while this might seem like a
pure track day machine, this also has cold-blowing air conditioning
to make sure this is ready for far more than just the quarter-mile.
If this seems like it has a road-ready level of finish, that's
because this car was built to be driven. It's a true showcase for
the best products around, and it has twice been on the
cross-country Power Tour. So this has the right level of
presentation and features that will make you not hesitate to take
it on another tour.
Under the hood is a true beast. It starts with a Merlin 540
cubic-inch Chevy big block. It's enhanced and fortified with an
Eagle 4340 forged steel crank, Manley rods, JE forged pistons,
Merlin rectangular-port aluminum heads, Comp Cams solid roller
camshaft, Comp Cams roller valvetrain, and topped with a Holley
electronic fuel injection system. You probably saw how the front of
the car gave up two eyes, and now you can see that it's to force
feed this big/bad machine with fresh air. And Hooker Super
Competition headers let this exhale with added power and authority
(and cutouts really let you bring the thunder whenever you want.)
It's supported by all the right pieces, including a Be Cool
aluminum radiator, MSD ignition, and steel braided lines with AN
fittings. This is a big power machine, and so this has stout TH400
three-speed automatic with TCI 3500 stall. This feeds a Moser
12-bolt rear with Eaton limited-slip diff and 3.73 gears. And when
it's time to hit the Power Tour again, there's Gear Vendors
overdrive to let this beast settle into a cruiser. The
undercarriage photos show the full custom suspension that includes
Global West tubular front A-arms, reinforced ladder bars in the
rear, QA1 nine-way adjustable coilovers, and SSBC four-wheel disc
brakes.
There is so much more to go over on this build. We have a ton of
documentation, magazines, restoration photos, a dyno sheet, and
plenty more details of the big name components that went into this
Chevelle so that they could use it for promotion. So if all the
best component makers were using this for their endorsements, you
know it's the kind of top quality build you may never find again.
