Vehicle Description

$106,000 Pro Touring build, I talked to the shop that built it. Only 1,883 miles since completed. They started with a clean Texas car and built it for a customer that wanted something unique that performed like a sports car.

EXTERIOR: This is a really good looking car. What I like best is that it's very unique. The paint scheme and wheels are one of a kind. The Texas body is clean and straight everywhere, panels fit square and flush. The big doors don't drop. The wheel well flares are molded to the body without seams. The original fiberglass dual scoop hood has Aerocatch flush hood locks. The rubber front end is in excellent shape. The silver paint is laid out evenly with plenty of metal flake. The white/gold paint stripes are painted on smooth. A high gloss clear coat finish is polished like glass. All the chrome was replaced- grills, headlight bezels, and turn signal bezels, door handles, taillights and rear bumper. Upgraded high intensity Halogen H4 headlights. It has sport mirrors, front and rear spoilers. The door jambs are painted real slick, new weatherstrips, sill plates and window seals. All new glass. The 18 inch wheels have gold accents inserts to match the striping on the car. They are wrapped with Michelin Pilot Sport tires, much wider in back.

INTERIOR: I want to make a desk chair out of this bucket seat, it is so comfortable! New cushions and upholstery. The upper and lower door panels look new. In front of me is a Formula wheel wrapped in glove soft leather on a tilt column. Nice set of Dakota Digital custom gauges in the factory holes. Heater controls are updated Vintage Air with electric slides instead of cables. It has a modern stereo system. A modern 6-speed shifter is sticking up out of the factory console which also has power window switches. Up above is a new headliner and visors. All the plastic trim is excellent, carpet looks new.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: 6.0 LS2 from a GTO. Upgraded LSX-R intake with custom intake tube. All the components on the motor are also modern: serpentine belt system, modern power steering, new Vintage Air heat and a/c system. New cadmium plated brake booster and new master. A big aluminum radiator with dual electric fans keeps it cool.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: New trunk floor was professionally welded in. It is all clean metal and gray spatter painted. The battery is relocated to the trunk in a closed container. Weatherstrip is replaced, bottom of the trunk lid glossy.

UNDERSIDE: Upgraded Hotchkis Sport Suspension. Upfront it has fat tubular control arms, lowering springs, gas shocks and HD swaybar. Large square tube frame rails tie the front and back together to prevent body twist. In back it also has lowering springs, gas shocks and custom swaybar. Very impressive custom exhaust. It's all stainless with 3 inch pipes that goes all the way out the back with turn down tips. It has X-pipe, Hooker mufflers and electric dumps. Upgraded with Corvette slotted disc brakes at all 4 wheels. New fuel system including tank, straps and upgraded fuel pump and lines for fuel injection. The bottom of the motor has an aluminium Holley oil pan and high torque starter. The trans is an upgraded Tremec 6-speed with a hydraulic clutch. Original 10 rear rear with posi gears. The entire subframe and chassis was dropped out of the car. The bottomside is all clean Texas metal. The factory seams and pinch welds are clean.

It is a pleasure to look at but the real thrill is getting behind the wheel. Hit the key and hear that custom exhaust come to life, then shifting through the gears on a curvy road will make you so glad you bought this car!

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.
