Ridler Chrome Wheels Garage Kept Motors is pleased to offer for
sale this sporty 1960 Chevrolet Parkwood Resto-Mod Station Wagon.
The red finish is striking on this wagon and has been prepped and
polished to a deep luster. These cars came well adorned in
stainless body trim when new and it is all present and well
restored and really sets off the space-age design and integrated
wing design. The front and rear bumper chromes have been restored
and shine brightly. Inside the interior is lightly restored and has
a very nice blend of original design with modern upgrades. The door
and kick panels are original and do have some warping and
distortion in the cardboard backing. The seats have been recovered
with cloth upholstery and new carpet and headliner have been
installed. The dash is original with upgraded full digital
instrumentation from Dakota Digital Instruments. The gear selector
has been upgraded to represent the overdrive transmission. The
factory AM radio is still present and an AutoMeter boost gauge has
been installed in the ashtray. Under the hood sits a Magnuson 112
Supercharged GM LS2 6.0L V8 producing 435hp and 415 ft-lbs. of
torque. The engine compartment is well-detailed, and a set of
plastic coil covers that look like era-correct W motor valve
covers. Exhaust flows throw a set of tube headers into dual exhaust
flowing into stainless performance mufflers with the tailpipes
dumping NASCAR style in front of the rear tires. The undercarriage
has been upgraded with tubular A-Arms with dropped spindles up
front and out back a Ford 9 differential is supported by a custom
four-link rear suspension. The differential is stuffed with 3.70:1
gears which nicely complement the 4L65-E overdrive automatic
transmission for great low-end pull but the ease of cruising on the
highway with low RPMs. The brakes have been upgraded to four-wheel
power assisted disc brakes with drilled and slotted rotors. The
fuel and brake lines are all new as well. The floorboards and frame
are free of rust and any indications of any collision repair. This
hopped-up wagon rolls on Ridler Chrome alloy wheels, 18 wheels up
front are wrapped in 245/40R18 radial tires with 20 wheels in the
rear with 275/40R20 radial tires and giving it a menacing stance.
This Parkwood Station Wagon looks fast just sitting still, but this
wagon has the GO to complete the Show in this case. The stunning
color will draw attention wherever this car goes be it a local cars
and coffee event or cruising the boulevard. Please call if
interested or e-mail with specific questions. Thank you for
looking.
