INTRODUCTION: This Chevelle will stand out anywhere it goes! It's
like a jewel ruby and the custom interior is just as impressive.
It's been body off frame restored and given many upgrades including
a new crate motor and trans.
EXTERIOR: This color will stop you in your tracks! It is a gorgeous
candy red with nice metallic laid out under a deep clear coat
finish. The silver stripes are painted on. The body is clean and
straight with an SS hood. Upfront the grille, bumper, lenses look
real good. The mirrors, handles, marker lights and window moldings
were replaced. In back the taillights, trim and the bumper were
replaced too. The windshield and the rear window were replaced,
weatherstrips were replaced. It's sitting pretty on new 17 inch
Ridler wheels wrapped in new BFG G-Force tires.
INTERIOR: It was completely lined with sound deadener: floors,
doors and ceiling. $10,000 TMI interior includes sport bucket seats
in front and a matching bench seat in back. The door panels match
and the custom console was upholstered to match as well. The dash
pad is new and it has a custom instrument panel with a full set of
AutoMeter gauges that really look great. It's got a new Bluetooth
retro stereo that has an amp, molded kick panel speakers and 6x9s
in back. A tilt column has a beautiful custom SS steering wheel.
Down on the floor is new carpet and reproduction floor mats, up
above is a new headliner, visors and mirror.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Not even 1,500 hundred miles on the new LS3
crate motor making 525 HP! It has stainless steel headers and a
real nice set of cast aluminum valve covers painted to match the
car along with the intake cover. The front of the motor has a CVF
runner system with billet brackets and pulleys, a serpentine belt,
mini polished compressor, polished alternator and custom power
steering. It also features power brakes. An aluminum radiator with
dual electric fans keeps it running cool. The CVF billet hinges not
only look great but they function great! The firewall's been
smoothed and the engine bays painted the color of the car.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid and the jamb were repainted.
The weatherstrip was replaced. Inside is real clean metal with a
spatter finish.
UNDERSIDE: The body was off the frame during a previous
restoration. Recently the suspension was rebuilt and upgraded in
front with tubular control arms and coilover adjustable gas shocks.
In back the springs are new and it has a swaybar. New Master Power
brake system including big drilled and slotted disc at all four
wheels, billet calipers, 6 piston in front and the e-brake assembly
is hooked up. The fuel system was replaced and is compatible with
the fuel injection. The exhaust sounds great and has stainless
mufflers and SS tips. Looking up at the motor, it's all aluminum
and has a high torque starter. It has a new crate 6L80E overdrive
automatic transmission with an external oil cooler. The 12 bolt
rear end was just rebuilt and is using 3.73 posi gears and has an
aluminum girdle cover. The floors are clean metal painted silver
like the chassis.
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.
CONCLUSION: This car not only looks like a jewel but it checks an
impressive list of features too!
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.
