INTRODUCTION: Less than 300 miles on a complete custom build! The
drivetrain is entirely new, not rebuilt. A pile of documentation is
included.
EXTERIOR: The body is clean, straight and fits right, the doors
shut like new! Repainted Artesian Turquoise and the clear coat
looks wet it's so glossy. The jambs are restored real tidy.
Weatherstrips were replaced along with front and rear windows. The
chrome and trim has mostly been replaced, the tail panel is a good
original. The lowered stance is perfect on the 17 inch Torque
Thrust wheels wearing Nitto Performance tires.
INTERIOR: It is restored with a nice mix of modern and vintage
style. It was first lined with Dynamat sound deadener. The new
carpet fits real nice and has floor mats. The TMI front and rear
seats look and feel great! The side panels and armrests are
reproductions. The dash pad was replaced, the gauges were upgraded
with a sharp looking Classic Industries gauge package. The climate
controls are also upgraded with Vintage Air electric slides. An
Ididit tilt column has a new deluxe wheel. The new headliner is as
tight as a drum. The best part is that 5-speed shifter sticking out
of the reproduction console!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This car gets its heartbeat from a power
packed, GM performance crate LS3! It's an aluminum 6.2 liter making
525 hp and 486 lb of torque! It is using a PSI wiring harness, DS
stainless headers and a CVF front runner system. The mini a/c
compressor and alternator are polished, the power steering is
modern and billet pulleys run a a serpentine belt. A Vintage Air
system provides heat and air. An Entropy high performance cooling
system keeps the motor cool, it features an aluminum radiator,
custom shroud and dual electric fans. Other features include a
Wilwood master cylinder, billet hinges and Detroit Speed custom
inner fenders with stainless hardware.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid and the jamb are painted
slick. Inside is solid metal with a nice spatter finish paint. It
has a carpeted mat with bound edges and the reproduction plaid mat,
the weatherstrip was replaced. The battery is relocated to the
trunk. It features an Optima battery with a billet hold down and a
disconnect switch. There is also a $350 custom car cover
included!
UNDERSIDE: Every part under this car is new and improved! It is set
up to handle all that power from the LS3. The Detroit Speed front
steering and suspension includes a custom subframe, supports that
go from the frame to the firewall, tig welded control arms, Detroit
Tuned coilover gas shocks, splined swaybar, forged aluminum
spindles rack and pinion steering. Tubular frame connectors run to
the back where there's Caltrax competition springs, lowering blocks
and tubular traction bars. A great sounding dual exhaust has a
crossover pipe and Flowmaster mufflers. Complete Wilwood brake
system with drilled and slotted disc at all four wheels, in back it
has forged super light 4R big brakes and the e-brake assembly is
new. Sniper conversion fuel tank and system. Looking up at the
motor it has a Powermaster high torque starter and Holley oil pan.
Over $6,000 SST trans package includes all new Tremec 5-speed,
McLeod hydraulic clutch, linkage etc. First one I've seen: a
Fastshaft carbon fiber driveshaft! The rear end is a Currie heavy
duty 9 inch with 31 spline axles, 3.70 posi and a TA aluminum
girdle cover. Everything is new so it's very clean looking and the
floors are real clean too, painted 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.
CONCLUSION: Can you imagine 525 HP in this little Nova? No need to
dream, make it yours and find out first hand what a blast this is
to drive!
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.
