Vehicle Description
Beauty and a Beast! This Pro Street has a performance built 454 and
some massive meats in back if you want to launch it. If you feel
like cruising in comfort, it has a/c, overdrive, and even power
windows! It will turn heads too: beautifully restored keeping the
appearance mostly vintage 56. It was born a Bel Air in these
colors. From the prestigious Georgia Mountain collection.
EXTERIOR: With the exception of the aggressive stance and some very
custom wheels, it is restored completely to stock. It was even born
these colors. The body is in excellent condition. I didn't see any
rust or damage. I was especially impressed with how square and
flush all the panels fit. The doors even close like a new car. The
paint is very smooth and glossy, just a few minor imperfections on
the hood. It looks like the glass was replaced. All the chrome was
replaced and still shows well. The stainless is straight and shiny.
Modernized electric wiper system. Upgraded halogen tri-bar
headlights. The wheels are 15 inch Torque Thrusts, extra extra wide
in back with Mickey Thompson tires.
INTERIOR: It was restored from carpet to headliner. Reproduction
door panels and upholstery with the chrome piping. Under the carpet
is a layer of sound deadener. The dash has a nice blend of original
style trim and updated with digital gauges and a pop out touch
screen stereo. The heater controls look original but are actually
updated with electric slides. That's a good looking wheel on a
polished tilt column too. You might also notice some custom chrome
handles on the door panels along with power window switches.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Wow! That's what they'll say when you open the
hood. It's fully dressed in highly polished parts. The heart of it
is a performance built 454 making about 450 hp. On top is a
polished dual tunnel ram with a chrome Street Performance fuel
injection system. The front of the motor has billet brackets with a
polished alternator, billet pulleys with a serpentine belt, chrome
a/c compressor and a polished power steering with a remote
reservoir. There is a set of coated headers on it too. It has hard
a/c lines and stainless radiator hoses. It runs cool with the
aluminum Griffin radiator, electric pusher and puller fans and a
polished overflow bottle. The power brake booster is chrome. The
dipsticks are braided stainless. The engine bay is painted
slick.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Inside the trunk is all painted gloss white.
You'll notice the wheel tubs for the massive tires lurking below.
It has a custom carpeted mat, a CD changer, and a battery
disconnect. Oh yeah, that vintage Coca-Cola cooler is actually home
to the relocated battery.
UNDERSIDE: The front end was rebuilt and upgraded with tubular
control arms and coil over adjustable gas shocks. Steering
components were replaced. The rear chassis was completely
reconstructed to accommodate the giant tires. It has a four link
system along with coilover shocks. Great sounding dual exhaust with
Flowmaster mufflers. The fuel tank was replaced and has stainless
braided fuel lines and an inline electric pump. Upgraded with disc
brakes at all four wheels. Looking up the motor it has an extra
capacity oil pan and a high torque starter. Upgraded with a 700R4
overdrive automatic. Custom made drive shaft goes back to a
narrowed Ford 9 inch rear end. The floors and structure is
solid.
SERVICE: We ran it through our shop for inspection and replaced the
fuel system: tank, sending unit, electric pump, filter, fuel
pressure gauge, injector and TPS. We recharged the a/c, reprogramed
the speedometer, flushed the power steering system and serviced the
rear brakes.
This ride offers nostalgia, brute muscle and comfort! Didn't know
that was possible but here it is. It will fulfill whatever mood you
are in!
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. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment
there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,
your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year
membership.
