Vehicle Description
This is an Incredible No expense spared rotisserie build with
everything 100% new or restored. Fuel-injected small block V8 Auto
trans with overdrive A/C power windows leather stereo and more!
Ready to cruise and show at any level. This is a True Must See car
ready for shows or cross country trip!The goal was to build a car
with a '70s Auto-Rama vibe without going too far into the wacky
zone and I think they've succeeded. Starting with an incredibly
solid Chevy 2-door they stripped it bare and started rebuilding it
almost at the molecular level. Chevy fans will quickly spot the
Nomad quarter panels which open up the wheel arches and give this
coupe a slightly different look. The paint is simply called "Medium
Garnet Red" and it comes from a luxury car pallet but it looks just
about right on the vintage Chevy bodywork. The shine is deep and
reflective and you won't find any ripples or waves anywhere on this
car. As I said there's a HUGE investment in time to get everything
just right.All the chrome was refinished as well including the
1-piece California bumpers (this is an original California car and
also has Correct California seamless frame). You'll quickly spot
the Corvette style grille inserted up front which is a favorite
upgrade that makes a big difference in the look and that side trim
is from a 1955 Pontiac-bet you didn't even notice because it looks
like it belongs there. The remaining trim from the headlight bezels
to the door handles to the taillight housings is new. A few bits
have been shaved to give it a clean look.The tan leather interior
replicates the original patterns and look but the plush feel is
beyond anything they were doing in 1955. The power windows zip up
and down faster than on a new Cadillac the A/C blows cold and
there's a killer Kenwood AM/FM/CD stereo system that sounds
especially good thanks to extensive sound-deadening materials used
throughout the cabin. Add in the handsome plush carpets the
wood-rimmed billet wheel and those trick Dakota Digital gauges and
you have a car that feels far more upscale than a vintage Chevy
should. And again everything is new from the door handles to the
shiny billet insert on the dash and even the clock over on the
passenger's side is fully operational. You'll note the tilt
column's shifter quadrant has four positions for the 700R4 4-speed
automatic overdrive transmission underneath and the Vintage Air A/C
controls are a dead-ringer for the originals. The trunk is modestly
finished with a matching carpet mat bound at the edges and you can
see that even in the trunk the paint was professionally wet sanded
and buffed. Impressive deep mirror shine!Powered by a new GM crate
350 fitted with aluminum heads upgraded camshaft and the other
usual bolt-on upgrades so it's a fantastic runner. A big part of
that is the FAST fuel injection system sitting on top of a Summit
aluminum hi-rise intake which makes this car run like it was built
in 2015 not 1955. Turn the key and the system pressurizes in a
second or two then fire it up. It idles smoothly at 700 RPM right
off the bat-no fussy choke or finicky throttle problems. Just start
and go. There's a very trick touch-screen interface hidden in the
glove box that allows you to tune the engine as you drive and
monitor conditions in real-time a fantastic tool for getting
everything right. And it looks just as good as it runs with chrome
Chevrolet valve covers and a matching air cleaner a polished billet
aluminum serpentine belt accessory drive and a giant Griffin
aluminum radiator up front with a pair of fans to manage heat. Of
course everything is new including wiring hoses belts and all the
stainless hardware.Underneath it's just as impeccably clean and
well-detailed starting with a rare California-only one-piece
seamless frame. A 3-inch exhaust system with X-pipe and modest
mufflers sounds suitably racy but never gets annoying (since this
car was designed to cruise long distances in comfort). The front
suspension uses tubular lower control arms and disc brakes while a
Ford 9-inch hangs on leaf springs out back with 3.55 gears inside
which works great with the overdrive transmission. There's a brand
new gas tank hanging out back and it sits on a set of traditional
Cragar SS wheels with 215/70/15 front and 275/60/15 rear BFGoodrich
T/A radials.This is a True Turn Key car that does not need
anything. If you are looking for the best of the best this is it...
and you will buy for half of what it originally cost to build!
