This car is flat out rowdy! Detailed body off frame, rotisserie
restoration. Done as a Restomod meaning it's restored to look
stock, but it has some very nice upgrades. How about a ZZ454
generating 469 horsepower. Add in a 5-speed manual trans and you
have the perfect combination for an exhilarating drive. Be the king
of the streets in the super quick and super sharp Chevelle. The
words naughty and nice perfectly sum this car up!
EXTERIOR: It's nicer than it was in '71, I can tell you that! The
body is absolutely straight and fits real nicely. It has the iconic
cowl induction hood with the functional flapper door. The paint is
smooth all the way down to the rockers and the Nevada Silver metal
flake is laid out evenly. The clear coat is polished like glass and
the SS stripes are even smooth to the touch. Allthe chrome and
stainless is sparkling on the car. The stainless trim around the
windows is polished, emblems replaced etc. The weatherstrip, lenses
and vinyl top were replaced. The glass has even all been replaced.
It is on a set of 15 inch SS wheels and BFGoodrich tires that look
new.
INTERIOR: As I sit in this car and look around I can't help to
think it looks practically brand new! It's also optioned out very
well. Starting at the bottom the carpets look fresh and it has
reproduction floor mats. The Hurst shifter looks stock but it's
actually a five-speed! It has a complete set of original seat belts
front and back and very good shape. The seats and headrests are
completely reupholstered. The side panels, armrests, window cranks
have all been replaced. In front of me is a pristine looking dash
with the full set of gauges including a tachometer, the clock even
works. It has a factory AM/FM stereo that works too. The heater
control panel and the vents have been replaced. Overhead is a new
tight fitting headliner with matching visors, a working dome light
and the shoulder belts are in place. The mirror looks new.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: That's a ZZ454 GM performance crate engine
making about 465 hp. It has aluminum GM heads and intake, and a
dual feed Holley carburetor is hiding under the functional cowl
induction air cleaner assembly. It also has headers and HEI
ignition. The factory air conditioning system has been fully
serviced and updated. It also has power steering and power brakes
with a cadmium plated booster. The Delco battery topper with spring
clamp cables looks factory. It even has reproduction hoses and
clamps, valve covers, stickers and hood insulation. All the metal
surfaces are painted smoothly.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Very clean and complete under the trunk lid and
in the jamb are painted slick. It has reproduction decals,
weatherstrip, and trunk mat. It also has a jack and spare
assembly.
UNDERSIDE: Body off frame, rotisserie restored. The frame was
powder coated. It has the F-41 suspension, it's been completely
rebuilt and includes swaybars front and back and rear box control
arms. The steering has also been completely rebuilt. The brake
system has been redone including replaced lines, hoses and e-brake
cables. Upgraded with disc at all four wheels. The fuel system was
also replaced including the tank and lines. It has a custom dual
exhaust with crossover pipe, Flowmaster mufflers and SS tips.
Looking up at the motor it is spotless Chevy Orange and has a high
torque starter. Upgraded with a Tremec 5-speed manual trans and a
hydraulic clutch. The rebuilt driveshaft leads back to a 12 bolt
rear with 3.73 posi gears. The floors, braces and rockers are clean
metal painted a smooth semi-gloss black.
SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we
built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and
hired a team of technicians to work it. This is so we can sell you
the best cars within reason.
An absolutely gnarly ride! This knockout car that has been
painstakingly restored with original vintage looks and some killer
performance upgrades. It is very dialed in and ready to be driven
anywhere. Truly an iconic image of American muscle car history!
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the
highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide
is my professional opinion based on my experience with these
vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a
personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always
available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is
to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase
the car and share our team's insights. **Our cars are displayed
within a museum setting. If you are interested in a specific
vehicle, please schedule an appointment with a salesperson to view
it. Without an appointment, there is an admission fee to enter the
showroom. If you decide to purchase a car, your admission will be
refunded, and you'll receive a one-year museum membership.
