Vehicle Description
This 1957 Chevrolet 150 station wagon is a no-expense-spared
modern-day muscle car that underwent a 12-year restoration. The
drivetrain is a new 6.0-liter V8 engine topped with LY6 fuel
injection with COMP Cams cam and valve springs. The car gets power
to the wheels through a rebuilt T56 6-speed manual transmission
with Z06 internals. The exhaust is custom stainless with long-tube
headers and is cooled by an aluminum radiator. The front suspension
is built with CPP tubular front suspension on a factory California
tube chassis that is powder-coated. It includes a Speedway
Engineering front sway bar with splined connecting links. The rear
suspension is built with Art Morrison triangulated 4-link rear
suspension with Strange coilovers and a Moser Ford 9-inch rear
differential with 3.73 gears, as well as a custom chromoly
driveshaft delivering 450hp. The Centerline wheels are wrapped in
BFGoodrich tires. It has a Borgeson Delphi 600 power steering box,
and stopping power comes from C6 front brakes and Wilwood 4-piston
in the rear with a Wilwood master cylinder. The rear side windows
roll down with custom-made channels, motors and regulators, and the
glass is all factory-tinted. The fender wells, rear differential,
radiator support and suspension components are powder-coated. The
floor pan is a full one-piece and the underneath of the car is as
show-quality as the exterior and interior. The interior is
custom-built by Ciadella Interiors in Arizona and includes a custom
center console finished in red. The floors are covered in Dynamat
with Mercedes carpeting and the front seats are out of an Impala.
The dashboard is smooth and fully electronic with a Flaming River
steering column. The car was built with Vintage Air climate
control; the stereo is made by Kenwood and has Apple CarPlay. This
