Body off frame restored about 12 years ago. California built 210
with Bel Air trim added. Done up like an old school hot rod with
dual quads, 4-speed and vintage style gauges.
EXTERIOR: I'm standin next to it admiring how good it looks. The
Tropical Turquoise color, those polished wheels and the stance are
all great. The body looks clean and straight, I don't see any signs
of rust, bubbles or damage. The paint is gorgeous and has polished
glossy finish but there are some flaws if you look for them.
There's some nicks touched up. The chrome and trim is exceptionally
nice. Up front it all sparkles like new- the bumper, hood trim,
grill bar, headlight bezels and the rockets on the hood. The
emblems are new. The rubber pointed tips were upgraded with chrome.
It has the optional dual mirrors, door handle guards and the
correct antenna, they all look new. New Bel Air trim was added on
the sides, the moldings around the windows look new. In back the
bumper, taillight housings and emblems were replaced. The
windshield was replaced, the other glass is very nice. The door
jambs are painted very nicely, weatherstrips were replaced. New 15
inch polished American Racing wheels with spinners, they are wider
in the back. It also has fatter tires in back.
INTERIOR: Very nicely restored inside. On the the floor it has good
carpet, reproduction mats and a new Hurst shifter for a bench seat.
The seat feels firm, correct reproduction upholstery and matching
door panels. New handles and armrests. The cloth headliner, visors
welting around the doors was replaced. The metal trim and dash were
repainted turquoise, the stainless trim looks new. It has a set of
gauges below the dash and a vintage style tachometer on the dash. A
retro stereo fits right in the factory hole, it has auxiliary plug
in the glovebox and kick panel speakers. A beautiful custom wheel
is mounted on a chrome tilt column. The coolest feature of all is
the vintage gas pedal shaped like a foot!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The 265 motor runs strong strong. Recently
added a new Edelbrock intake and dual quad Edelbrock carbs. It has
premium fuel lines and fittings with pressure regulator. New
Flamethrower ignition system and a new set of coated Hedman
headers. It is dressed up real cool with some finned aluminium
valve covers and breathers. Has chrome alternator. It runs cool
with new fan, shroud, hoses, aluminium water, radiator and overflow
bottle. All new power steering system recently added. Upgraded dual
reservoir master cylinder. Everything is painted up real nice,
wires are run neatly, the hinges are clean.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Solid metal trunk compartment painted turquoise.
The bottom of the trunk lid and the jamb are glossy. The battery
was relocated to the trunk and is mounted down properly. New
weather strip and rear seat divider. The trunk mat is in good
shape, it does have some tears.
UNDERSIDE: The body was removed from the frame for a thorough
restoration. The underside is solid metal that was painted gloss
turquoise. The chassis is semi-gloss black. The front end was apart
and the components look good. It was recently upgraded with front
disc brakes. Looking up at the motor it is clean Chevy orange.
Starter looks fresh, has correct canister type oil filter and a
flywheel cover. It was recently converted to a 4-speed. It has a
Muncie, the linkage, trans mount are all new. The fuel system was
replaced including the tank, straps, lines etc. It has a new custom
exhaust with crossover pipe and Flowmaster mufflers. It's not a
brand new build but you can see many parts were replaced- body
bushings, u-joints, brake lines, shocks etc.
This is an all around great package. It has the looks, quality and
performance without spending a fortune!
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.
