This Chevelle convertible has what you want! Stunning color
combination, SS features along with a 396 and a 4-speed. It's not
done there; it also has power steering and it is upgraded with
power disc brakes. It has been treated to a nice frame off
restoration too. This is the muscle car dreams are made of!
EXTERIOR: The paint is absolutely gorgeous! It was expertly applied
with great attention to detail then polished to a smooth and highly
reflective finish. I could literally shave in its reflection!
Looking down the side of the body it is 100% straight. All the
panels are nicely aligned with great gaps. The doors close easily
like a new car. All the glass, rubber seals, and even fuzzy strips
were replaced. The black power top and white vinyl boot are both in
great condition. It has the correct dual bulge hood, SS 396 grille,
and Super Sport emblems too. All the trim and bumpers shine like
jewelry. It's also equipped with dual mirrors. It's sitting on
reproduction redline tires with optional mag hubcaps.
INTERIOR: I'm in love with this white interior! The way it plays
off the Tuxedo Black paint really tickles the senses not to mention
a white interior stays much cooler. It has been fully restored to
virtually like new condition. The dash was restored with new pad on
top, new trim and the bare metal was painted slick just like the
body. It has SS gauges and a nice 2 spoke deluxe wheel too. There
is a modern stereo that fits in the factory hole and speakers
molded into the kick panels. The bucket seats with center console
and 4-speed shifter are a very nice feature. Even the clock and
interior lights are working. It's equipped with seat belts in the
front and back. The rearview mirror appears to be original.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Open the hood and smile! Underneath is a period
correct 396 cubic inch engine that looks fantastic. It has been
upgraded with a Holley carburetor, Edelbrock intake manifold, MSD
ignition, and headers. It is nicely dressed in a chrome air cleaner
and valve covers. It has power steering and power brakes. The
radiator looks new, and the battery is properly secured. All the
hoses, belts, and wires were replaced. The horn works and even the
squirters are hooked up. The underside of the hood is painted just
like the body and complete with insulation. The fender wells and
firewall are painted body color too and complete with the original
trim tag.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and jamb are
painted Tuxedo Black just like the body. Reproduction stickers were
added, and the weather stripping was replaced. The trunk pan metal
is all solid and rust free with a neatly applied spatter coat
paint. The trunk is complete with a full-size spare tire and jack
assembly. The power convertible top and power antenna motors are
both located in the trunk and have been replaced.
UNDERSIDE: This car received a frame off restoration, and the
underbody looks great. The steering and suspension were totally
rebuilt. It has a fatter sway bar up front plus new springs and
Bilstein shocks all the way around. In back it has also been
upgraded with tubular control arms. It has been upgraded with front
disc brakes and the emergency brake is hooked up too. The fresh
looking full dual exhaust system is complete with mufflers and
tailpipes that exit under the rear bumper. The gas tank and hanging
straps were replaced. Looking up at the period correct 396 engine
everything looks clean and proper. It is equipped with a high
torque starter. It has a reproduction Muncie M21 4-speed trans from
Auto Gear. Power is transferred to a 12 bolt positraction rear end.
The floors are solid, the frame was prepped and painted.
SERVICE: Our lead mechanic thoroughly inspected this car, and we
reinstalled the glove box latch, plugged in the clock, repaired the
wiper switch, connected the blower motor, repaired the door lock
knob, and modified the window crank.
Drop the top and go for a cruise! The 396 big block with the
4-speed manual is a blast to drive. Turn heads everywhere you go
with the killer color combo. This car has everything going for it
and is over the top cool!
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.
