For Sale: 1955 Chevrolet 210 in San Luis Obispo, California

Vehicle Description

Features... Power Brakes, Power Windows, Tachometer, Tilt Steering Wheel, Seat Belts Notes... 1955 Chevrolet, 2 door 210 Prostreet Restomod. This remarkable award-winning show car is the perfect blend of old school flair, well planned custom modifications and modern technology. It is near perfect everywhere you look and as impressive in performance as it is in looks. When sitting still, one cannot help but be drawn in by the beautiful paint job and meticulously polished brightwork. The Paint is red orange (think Chevrolet "Roman Red" or close to it). The flawless body, with some subtle modifications, was painted by K Daddy in Bakersfield, CA featuring tastefully applied graphics and stripes and a custom hood with a beaded opening that perfectly surrounds the K&N styled air breather. The beauty of the car's appearance almost makes you forget that it's a race car. Oh yeah. It's that and more.... The stance of the car is adjusted by virtue of the car's Ride Tech air ride system, lowering the beast to mere centimeters from its launch pad. The 454 cu in Engine was bored 0.60 over and dynoed at 800 hp, with 900 ft lbs of torque. That's true Chevy power! The engine was built with roller rockers, a "Big Mother Thumper" Comp cam, AFR aluminum heads, and has new valve cover gaskets, New rings, new bearings, new lifters, new springs, etc. Riding above the two 4 barrel tunnel Ram intake set up, is a Fast brand dual throttle body system that is computer-controlled along with a variable timing distributor. The car is perfectly tuned and the engine can be tuned to different dynamics with its onboard hand held computer. N02 bottles and associated plumbing was added to the engine. It is functional, with a bottle mount behind the driver and a vapor release valve mounted near the windshield, but was added for shock value more than it was for racing really. BTW, The owner doesnt race it. He has not been aggressive with the car either. Besides, there is less than 300 miles on the motor ! The car features many other nifty mechanical goodies. To name a few is the 400 Turbo Transmission (Big bearing), 10 inch Streetfighter torque converter. a Gear Vendor overdrive, a Ford 9 inch 4 link rear end (33 currie spline axle) with 355 gears and huge tires allowing it to cruise at 75mph at only 2000 rpm. Also worth mentioning is its big aluminum radiator with 2 electric fans, custom made headers, Borla mufflers, dual remote-mounted oil filters, dual remote-mounted transmission filters, serpentine belts and Gates heatshrink hose fasteners (no clamps). Steering the rocketship is helped by a Dutchman front end with manual rack and pinion. Stopping the beast is accomplished by Four wheel power disc brakes with a frame mounted booster (not visible from engine bay). Brakes feature 6 piston Wilwood calipers with drilled rotors on front and 4 piston Wilwood calipers with drilled rotors at rear. A line locker brake has been added but never used. When you open the solenoid controlled door you first notice the Billet door hinges, two tone door panels and billett handles. The custom Interior looks a day old and was done by professional Mike Ray in Cayucos, CA in 2015 and features a well insulated cabin with comfy short back bucket seats, a custom center console with drink holders, custom floor coverings front and rear, a shaved and smoothed painted dash, a full custom roll cage painted same as exterior, an upper rocker switch panel, a rosewood and aluminum tilt wheel, Sport Comp Tachometer, white face Autometer gauges, Electric windows, and even an operating clock in dash! The interior says "you're comfortable and don't worry... I can get you to work on time" . Although the door handles have been shaved with hidden a solenoid button and a remote, there is also an under hood emergency latch eliminating the need for battery power and open the doors. Handy if your battery decides to lose a charge. This car has dual Optima batteries mounted in
