Vehicle Description
In a perfect world, we could all enjoy unabashedly vintage toys
without fear of mechanical issues, cost or some freak accident
ruining a prized possession. Unfortunately, that's not reality, and
most classics integrate a fair amount of late-model hardware to
increase both safety and reliability. Take this handsome Chevy, for
example. Wrapping tasteful aesthetics around proven small block
power, this cool slice of timeless Americana is a great driver that
mixes hot performance with great style. And if you're looking for
an old school ride with a bit of muscle car flare, it's your ticket
to endless fun!
LIKE A FINE WINE
Fully sorted and ready to rock and roll, this polished pickup is
the beneficiary of a detailed, ground-up restoration that,
completed in late 2019 by a small shop in Missouri, mixes
head-turning poise with proven athleticism. All that lovable charm
sealed fully stripped metal in rich House Of Kolor Shimrin
Brandywine Kandy flash. And today, the truck rolls as unique but
familiar street rod art that's easy to live with and even easier to
look at!
The exhibit kicks off with a polished bumper, which guards a
polished and black-trimmed grille that centers clear parking lamps
between subtle LED headlights. A "CHEVROLET" branded bonnet,
pointed with flashy stainless, fronts a filled cowl and polished
wipers. Those blades clear a smoked greenhouse under a big Fulton
visor and a duo polished mirrors. Factory door handles join
bowtie-branded running boards to lead custom wheel tubs at the
sides of nicely textured wood. And at the back of that bed, a
massaged tailgate shades a custom roll pan and custom LED
taillights between billet rail plugs.
POWER FOR THE AGES
Pop the hood and you'll find 350 cubic inches of proven Chevy small
block that looks good and runs great! A retro air cleaner tops
electronic FiTech Go Street fuel injection that makes hard starts
and annoying carburetor coughs a thing of the past. That system
feeds a spry Edelbrock Performer EPS intake, which looks great
between polished breathers and finned valve covers. The fires get
lit by a hot HEI distributor, which sparks carefully loomed plug
wires. Spent gases fall through old school exhaust manifolds. At
the front of those tubes, billet pulleys spin a coated AC
compressor over a polished alternator, polished power steering and
a polished water pump. At the front of those ancillaries, a
lightweight Champion radiator pairs a polished expansion tank with
a large electric puller fan. And the iron mill looks great amid
choice details like a smoothed firewall and a full Hyperfuel
Command Center.
GO TO MATCH THE SHOW
Slide beneath this rig and you'll find a clean, road ready
undercarriage that's founded on a thoughtfully modified chassis. At
the front of those boxed bones, a trusty Mustang II-style
suspension frames modern power rack-and-pinion steering. Opposite
that clip, a proven 10-bolt axle pushes a triangulated 4-bar
rear-half. That pumpkin twists thanks to a dressed 700R4 4-speed.
Momentum gets countered by a floor-mount brake booster, which
pushes power to four vented discs. Big Flowmaster mufflers roar
through polished, side-exit tips. The FiTech system drains a
relocated and custom-fabricated fuel tank. And this Chevy's lowered
stance is greatly complemented by chromed US Mags Ramblers, which
spin 225/70R15 BF Goodrich Radial T/As in front of 275/60R15 BF
Goodrich Radial T/As.
COOL IN CONTRAST
Between the doors, a custom-upholstered split bench seat stretches
sweet Black and Saddle vinyl around a comfy, reclining frame. A Jet
Black dash hangs tasteful Omega Kustom telemetry next to Vintage
Air conditioning and touchscreen Pioneer audio that's complete with
USB ports and a crisp backup camera. Plush cut-pile carpet props
tidy cupholders behind a billet accelerator pedal, tough mats and a
long Lokar shifter. Custom Black and Saddle door panels frame
traditional handles. And the driver spins a stylish Forever Sharp
Black Muscle steering wheel around a polished, tilting column.
Polished, sorted and ready to roll, this pickup is primed for years
of enjoyment. It's the perfect buy for any enthusiast who wants to
live vintage while staying grounded in drivability. Ready to
upgrade your weekend transportation? Don't miss this opportunity to
experience a fresh spin on the traditional favorite!
