Vehicle Description
Ridler Great 8 383 Stroker Custom Tri Power
Welcome to RK Motors and take a look at this incredible 2013 Ridler
Award Great 8 qualifier custom street rod built over 3 years by
Enthusiast in Alexandria, Ohio.
This street rod is all custom-built from an American-made 1946
Chevrolet pickup. Over the top modifications with only the best
components to enhance performance, appearance, and overall
drivability. Built for an enthusiast that wants a combination of
classic aesthetics with contemporary technology.
Customization is the name here from the custom fabricated frame to
the extensively modified engine bay and suspension. Every inch of
this custom has been altered and fabricated.
Under the fabricated hood, is a Chevrolet 383 V8 stroker producing
435HP. Sitting on top of that powerplant is a Rochester tri-power
carb set up, all tuned to perfection. Engine build was handled by
Bill Moore Motors of Eaton, Ohio. Shifting duties is by way of a
TH350 that was built by Bob Davis Transmissions. Outback is a
sturdy 10 bolt rearend.
Aesthetics is on full display being finished in Audi Daytona Gray
paint that was enhanced with pearl. The interior has flame red
paint with Ostrich skin vinyl bomber seat upholstery. Even the
staggered lace wire wheels by Dayton are finished in flame red.
The channeled body has been worked over to include a 4" chopped
roof, ultra-low lowboy style and all steel except for the custom
fiberglass nose piece. Shaved drip rails, door handles, and door
hinges along with a smoothed firewall and cowl vents filled in all
add to the style. Let's not forget suicide door hinges, full custom
hood, sides, nose, and grille. The bed floor has Pennsylvania
Cherrywood while the tail pan has 3" louvers.
This mix of old and new is a defining characteristic of this 46
Chevy and is right at home at car shows and events where other
street rod enthusiasts will gather to admire this creation.
