$135,000, 3 year professional restoration! Only 2,300 mi since it
was finished. High quality, tastefully done in and out. It's a real
performer too!
EXTERIOR: Professional body restoration by Manley Rod N Customs.
This Chevy is laser beam straight! All the emblems were removed and
filled for a smooth look. No rust or damage. The deep metallic
copper color is laid out evenly the clear coat is polished like wet
glass. It looks like you could reach right into the paint. The
chrome was either redone or replaced at the time of restoration.
The weatherstrips and window seals were all replaced. All new glass
with a very light smoked tint. Staggered size Budnick polished
wheels: 17 inches in front 18s in back and they're wrapped in
performance Yokohama tires.
INTERIOR: I'm sitting in the car right now and I am very impressed,
I can smell the leather! Complete custom floor to ceiling by
Northeast Custom Rods. It was gutted and lined with sound deadener.
Completely new wire harness with modern fuse block. The seats are
custom contoured, reclining buckets in front. They are upholstered
in Italian leather with French stitching. Very sharp looking custom
contoured side panels and rear shelf. Custom cloth headliner with a
decorative center piece. Down on the floor is custom cut carpet
with bound edges, new seatbelts and a billet shifter with a leather
boot. In front of me is slick painted metal and a neatly installed
matched set of Pro Comp gauges. Below the dash is a custom console
with a JVC Bluetooth stereo, it has a sub and amp, 4 speakers were
installed behind decorative wire mesh covers. It also has a
beautiful steering wheel on a tilt column. Billet handles and
pedals.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Under the hood it's completely custom. It has
chassis work inner fenders, the entire engine bay and under the
hood is painted slick like the car. At the heart of it is a
performance built 355 engine reportedly making 500 horsepower! It
has a Crane solid lifter cam for high revving and on top is an
Edelbrock aluminum intake, 750 dual feed Holley carb and an MSD
ignition system. It also has a set of headers. It's dressed up with
some cast aluminum Trick Flow valve covers. In front of the engine
is a serpentine belt system with billet pulleys and alternator. It
runs cool with an aluminum radiator, overflow bottle and stainless
hoses. It features power brakes and a new wiper motor with hooked
up squirters. Tubular supports are mounted from the firewall to the
frame to prevent body twist.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It's beautiful in here too! Under the trunk lid
and the jamb are painted as slick as the car. Inside is boxed,
upholstered and carpeted to match the interior. The front panel
hides the battery and stereo equipment. The fuel filler is down on
the floor.
UNDERSIDE: It has a custom chassis. Upfront is a Chassis works
front subframe with tubular control arms, adjustable coilover gas
shocks, rack & pinion steering. Welded in frame connectors tie the
front to back and prevents body twist. In back it has new springs,
traction bars and adjustable QA-1 gas shocks. Hand fabricated
stainless exhaust with Magnaflow mufflers and turn down tips. 11
inch Wilwood disc brakes at all four wheels with Dynalite calipers
and a custom e-brake system. Custom fuel system including the tank,
pump, and braided fuel line. Looking up at the motor it has an
anodized oil pan and a high torque starter. A heavy duty scatter
shield connects to a Super T-10 4-speed manual trans with a
hydraulic clutch. A custom driveshaft connects to a Fab9 rear end
with 3.56 locker gears. The floors are smooth, dry metal painted
black.
SERVICE: We inspected the car and installed a new clutch, hydraulic
throw out bearing and had the flywheel cut. We reattached the
interior door handle, replaced the speedometer cable and the
e-brake handle.
I mentioned this car was professionally built and it shows. The fit
and finishes throughout out are high quality. It's tastefully done
too, gorgeous exterior and a very rich interior. It's more than
just a pretty face, this little car rocks! Accelerates, stops and
handles like a sports car.
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.
