This car is stunning, it's wild and tasteful at the same time! Only
650 miles since a body off frame professional build.
EXTERIOR: The body has had extensive custom work lead sled style!
It's a chopped top, it was nosed, decked and shaved! The trim was
removed and filled on the hood, trunk and down the sides. The hood
corners were rounded. The handles were removed, doors open by
remote. The fuel door was filled. The headlights, turn signals and
taillights were frenched. The paint is killer! The bodywork was
done right, it is straight and isn't cracking or bubbling. The
metallic yellow fades from a lighter on top to darker on the
bottom. The purple metallic flames outlined in green is really
stunning. It has a smooth and glossy finish throughout. It has some
old school hand pinstripe too. A modified 1953 Corvette grill fills
the front. It's decorated with Lake pipes, dummy spot lights and
oval ports on the hood. Custom bumpers are smoothed. The glass was
replaced, original back window. It rolls on a set of radial
whitewall tires and sombrero caps.
INTERIOR: There's a lot of custom sculpting and upholstery, all
professionally done. Down on the floor is premium carpet and mats
with bound edges. The door panels, kick panels, rear panels, rear
shelf, seats and headliner all look amazing. In front of me is a
painted dash with hand pinstripe, sparkling chrome trim and Dakota
Digital gauges. The tilt column has a 1960 Impala steering wheel.
Features include power seat and windows. Inside the glovebox is the
stereo and air ride controls.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It's a smooth running 350 motor that's fully
dressed. The intake is polished and has a chrome plated Edelbrock
carb. It's decorated with a matched set of aluminum valve covers,
breathers and plug wire holders. Up on top is an airbrushed 1953
Cadillac air cleaner. The front of the motor has Vintage Air
conditioning and polished alternator. The hoses are braided
stainless. MSD electronic ignition. It runs cool with a polished
aluminum water pump, overflow bottle and radiator with an electric
fan. It has a hydro boost power steering. The engine bay is all
smooth clean metal painted yellow with custom pinstripe
throughout.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The trunk lid lifts open. It's been completely
boxed and upholstered like the interior including the bottom of the
trunk lid. There are 2 compartments that open. It has a carpeted
floor, relocated battery and fuel filler. through our compartments
and the fuel filler and battery.
UNDERSIDE: It literally rides on air, it has air bags at all four
corners. Custom front clip with with polished tubular control arms,
rack and pinion steering. In back the leaf springs and shocks were
replaced. It has lowering blocks. Dual exhaust with welded seams
and glass pack mufflers. New fuel system including the tank and
electric fuel pump. It has disc brakes in front, drum in back. The
e-brake is hooked up, the master cylinder and booster look new.
Looking up at the motor it has an extra capacity oil pan and a
chrome flywheel cover. It's a turbo 350 automatic trans and a Ford
9 inch rear end sits in the back. The frame, chassis and floors are
very impressive. Smooth rust free metal with a semi gloss black
finish.
SERVICE: We inspected the car and replaced the MSD box, repaired
the brake lights, replaced wire to the tachometer, replaced the
power window switch and lubed the track.
In today's world this custom build would cost $125,000 plus and you
need to purchase a car to begin with. I like it better after my
inspection. I love all the choices they made, the quality impressed
me and it feels good. You won't blend in with this one!
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.
