INTRODUCTION: Rotisserie restored! It was taken down to a bare
shell and restored with a long list of improvements from air
conditioning to heated seats. I can't stress enough how dialed in
this car is. I drove it all day and into the night and I swear
everything worked and performed exactly as it should. I just
checked our service ticket, it's blank! They didn't find one thing
wrong, that's the first time I've seen this. I just spoke to the
owner/restorer and he said his wife won't ride in an old car that
doesn't function like a new car so he worked out all the bugs. He
even took it on a Power Tour.
EXTERIOR: The body was taken down to its bare structure and put on
a rotisserie to be completely restored. It is straight and fits
real nice. It was upgraded with Shelby style hood, dovetail trunk
lid, side scoops, front air dam bullet mirrors and emblems. The
moldings were deleted for a clean look. The paint is a real slick
torch red and the black stripes start at the front spoiler and
continue over the top all the way to the rear valance. The bumpers
are smooth and color matched to the car. The rear bumper is tucked
into the body and has custom reverse lights built into it. The
windshield's been replaced and all the weatherstrips. The power
convertible top is upgraded with rich black German cloth. The
running lights in front are clear and turn amber when the turn
signal is used. It has Shelby style taillights. It rolls down the
road on performance tires wrapped around 17 inch billet wheels with
spinner centers.
INTERIOR: It is a very comfortable and sporty interior with
everything you could ask for. Down on the floor is red plush carpet
with Shelby floor mats. The good looking TMI seats are also super
comfortable and have alcantara trim and red stitching. The front
seats are even heated! The custom made center console is
upholstered and stitched to match. It features an armrest, cup
holders the touch screen stereo and the best part: a 5-speed
shifter! The dash pad, instrument bezels, door panels and armrests
were replaced. A tachometer, a/c controls and vents were neatly
installed. A polished tilt column has a leather wrapped cushion
grip steering wheel. The stereo is Bluetooth and a back up camera,
the tunes play through kick panel speakers and two speakers in the
rear armrests. New red seatbelts were installed, the fronts were
upgraded to 3 point retractables.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The 302 has a performance build, Dyno tuned at
389 hp. It was bored 30 over making it a 306, it was blueprinted
and balanced. It is a roller motor, has Keith Black 10:1 pistons,
aluminum heads with big valves and ports. It also has a Flame
Thrower ignition system, FiTech fuel injection and heat wrapped
headers. The front of the motor has a serpentine belt and pulley
system, polished alternator and a/c compressor. It also features
power steering and brakes. Upgraded cooling system with an aluminum
water pump, radiator and overflow tank. It has an electric fan,
premium hose fittings and hard pipe upper hose. The owner very
confidently stated it can be a 100� day, stuck in traffic with the
air conditioning on and it will never go over 180�. The engine bay
is painted as slick as the exterior, it features a Monte Carlo
support bar and stainless hardware.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid is painted gloss red and has
upholstered inserts. The jamb is slick too. Inside is boxed,
upholstered and has a carpeted floor.
UNDERSIDE: The bare shell was flipped on a rotisserie for a
complete restoration. To prevent body twist the factory welds were
reinforced, new welds added and frame rails were welded in. Then it
was all painted gloss red. The suspension has been completely
rebuilt and upgraded with Koni gas shocks. The steering is all
rebuilt and improved with Borgeson power steering . It's also
upgraded with Wilwood disc brakes at all four wheels and an
electric e-brake system. Great sounding dual exhaust with Flow
Monster mufflers and polished tips. The fuel system was replaced
and updated for the fuel injection. Looking up at the motor it has
an extra capacity polished oil pan and a high torque starter. The
trans is a T56 4-speed manual that was completely rebuilt. A
rebuilt driveshaft goes back to the completely rebuilt 9 inch rear
with 3.50 TrueTrack posi gears.
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 service the essentials on every car
we sell.
CONCLUSION: I've literally driven thousands of collector vehicles
of all price ranges, all levels of restoration and I've never been
in one that performed and functioned better than this one!
Someone's going to get a car that they can really use and
enjoy.
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.
