Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is excited to offer this one
of a kind custom 1954 Chevrolet 210 for sale. This sleek ride has
many custom touches and packs quite a punch, too! The first thing
one notices is the luxurious House of Kolors' 2-stage urethane
"Kandy Burgundy" paint (code KBC06), which is just beautiful in
bright light. It was applied after the headlights and taillights
were frenched, blocking and decking the hood, shaving the firewall,
door handles and trunk locks, and adding door & trunk poppers (with
emergency backup release), and the intensive prep labor shows in
the result!The chrome trim will blind you if the sun hits it just
right, too! The build was done to order in 2007 in Michigan
(builder unknown), and was enhanced by its current owner, who
purchased it from its first "post-build" owner in 2015. Since
purchasing it, both the front and rear suspension were replaced
with upgraded components and powder coated. In the front, it now
features a Mustang II steering rack, tubular upper control arms and
Wilwood disc brakes with multi-piston calipers. Out back, it has an
adjustable 4-link rear with polished QA1 coilovers, a 9-inch Ford
third member (with 3.73:1 gears and limited slip diff), and Wilwood
disc brakes with multi-piston calipers.Under the hood is a freshly
upgraded GM ZZ4 Crate 350 CID V8, which has been bored .030", along
with being fully balanced: so it's now a 355 CID V8. That mighty
mouse is topped by a polished Street & Performance upper and lower
intake with Tuned Port Injection, which feeds the air/fuel mix into
the ported and polished aluminum heads. A set of ceramic coated
shorty headers funnel the exhaust into the Flowmaster
muffler-equipped dual exhaust, which really provide for a nice,
muscular sound. A massive polished BeCool aluminum radiator with
twin electric fans keeps the small block cooled very effectively.
Behind the 355 CID V8 is a fresh 700R4 4-speed automatic, which was
built to handle up to 600 HP/600 TQ, so it's more than up to the
task of getting the power to the rear via the custom-built
driveshaft.Inside, the clean looking tan interior features
vinyl-trimmed cloth bench seating for both front and rear
passengers, with seatbelts for up to 4 occupants. The glove box is
hiding a large LCD screen-equipped entertainment system, so you'll
not have to worry about giving up your favorite cruisin' jams! The
driver gets the pleasure of viewing a custom set of VDO gauges,
through the wood-rimmed billet aluminum steering wheel atop the
polished iDidit steering column. The VDO gauges provide a vintage
look, but modern tech behind them. Everyone inside will enjoy the
cold Vintage Air A/C system, as well. A Lokar shifter falls easily
to hand for the driver, and not only looks cool, but provides easy
gear selection. The interior chrome surfaces are just as bright as
the exterior chrome, so you may need to wear your sunglasses at
night, too.While you're out cruising, you may surprise yourself at
how nicely this bad boy handles, with its nearly new super sticky
low profile performance radials, which wrap the custom 17-inch
billet aluminum Rocket wheels - don't be afraid to toss this beast
into a few S-curves! If you love the smooth style of the
early-to-mid 1950's Chevrolets, this one should top your list, so
give our Houston Showroom a call or send us an email before someone
else gets this one!
