Vehicle Description
Backing a Corvette-sourced LS1 with a 4L60E 4-speed, an adjustable
Ridetech suspension and custom leather upholstery, this
head-turning Bel Air has been drawing stares ever since it rolled
in to our showroom.
If you're ready to feel the summer breeze behind the wheel of a
unique, first-class custom, here's a chance to turn your dreams
into reality! The beneficiary of a body-off, rotisserie
restoration, this awesome Chevy features a decidedly street rod
aesthetic that's highlighted by glossy Mazda Liquid Silver 2-stage.
That silky pigment is augmented with a shaved header panel, shaved
fender toppers, a shaved decklid and sleek, matte-finished trim.
That monochromatic profile is detailed with a smoothed front
bumper, smoked glass and a smoothed, 1-piece rear bumper, which
play well with intricate headlights, smoked parking lamps and
electric RainGear wipers. And today, this coupe rolls as one fully
sorted hot rod that's tasteful, unique and poised to drop jaws!
Elevate the peaked hood and you'll find an all aluminum Corvette
LS1 V8. That well-mannered motor twists a predictable 4L60E 4-speed
automatic overdrive, which spins a tough Currie 9-inch rear axle
that's fitted with 3.73 gears and a proven limited-slip
differential.
That Ford-inspired pumpkin rolls on a double a-arm front and 4-link
rear suspension that's augmented with tubular control arms and
adjustable Ridetech bags. Modern power steering provides tracking.
Quick stops are a cinch thanks to four red calipers, which squeeze
13-inch drilled and slotted rotors. And attractive Billet
Specialties Legacy II wheels center polished spinners and
powder-coated spokes inside 225/45ZR18 and 245/40ZR20 Delinte
Thunder D7s.
Open this Bel Air's doors and you'll find a plush professionally
designed and installed leather cockpit. Top dead center, a
matte-finished dash frames bright Dakota Digital VHX telemetry in
subdued billet trim. Opposite that dash, petite '65 Thunderbird
buckets border a custom, full-length console that balances a
familiar Lokar shifter between full power windows, Vintage Air
climate control and modern Alpine audio. Beneath that console,
taught California Carpet floats piped and color-keyed floor mats
beneath custom side panels, billet door handles and billet foot
pedals. Opposite that carpet, a custom headliner ups the style
quotient. In front of the driver, a tilting column spins a
traditional, 2-tone steering wheel. And behind the passengers, a
leather-lined trunk features ample storage space.
So there you have it: a sweet Chevy that wraps a proven drivetrain
in striking aesthetics and comfortable upholstery. Call, click or
