This 1931 Chevrolet coupe is a full steel body car, but you can
instantly see this is far more than a classic cruiser. With plenty
of V8 power, an upgraded suspension, and a custom leather interior,
this is a very cool street machine that has been given attention in
all the right places.
The green and copper two-tone paint captures the right vibe of the
early 1930s, but the gloss and depth the finish radiates let
everyone know it's much more modern. And it's the mix of vintage
and modern that is a theme throughout the whole car. The body is
classic steel that has been restored with care to make sure the
panels are straight and doors open and shut solid. This deletes the
bumpers for a cleaner/sleeker style that lets you appreciate the
old-school steel more. It also means you appreciate well-placed
brightwork pieces, like the grille guard, headlight bezels, and
step plates. And the power car style is subtly added with details
like well-placed dual exhaust tips and clean color-matched wheels
that accommodate modern tires.
Inside is a full custom interior that showcases nearly a century's
worth of progress in comfort. It starts with the supple leather
seats. They are well-bolstered modern units finished in a black and
brown two-tone. The exterior color-matched dash, custom door
panels, and black carpeting (to show less dirt) are clean and
inviting. There are more well-integrated comfort features, like an
AM/FM stereo, cup holders, seatbelts, and provisions for R-134a air
conditioning (it will need servicing to blow cold again.) The
driver even gets useful upgrades like a Flaming River sports
steering wheel on a tilt column, a Lokar floor shifter, and
white-faced AutoMeter gauges.
The 350 cubic inch V8 loves to show off with a bold red block, and
there's plenty of shine on polished pieces like the air grabber,
ribbed valve covers, upgraded pulleys, and much more. Plus, it has
been enhanced with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, a GM high-rise
intake, and polished headers that feed the dual exhaust. There are
even nice supporting components, like steel braided lines and an
aluminum radiator with electric fan. When you look at the
undercarriage photos, you'll see all the right suspension
components. That means tubular A-arms up front, a trailing arm
rear, and adjustable coilovers all around. Plus, you have a
three-speed automatic transmission, power brakes, and front discs.
So this is built for plenty of fun driving all weekend long.
This is a well-done classic with added creature comforts and power,
too. So if you want the complete package, all you have to do is
