INTRODUCTION: Old school meets modern tech! A cowl hood, redline
tires wrapped around poverty hubcaps and an interior that looks
stock gives the impression it is stuck in 1969! But that is not the
case considering it has a fuel injected LS engine, a 5-speed,
modern air conditioning and RetroTech gauges. It looks old school
cool but offers modern performance and reliability. Just get in,
turn the key, and drive into some excitement!
EXTERIOR: Tough yet tasteful! The steel cowl induction hood, fender
mounted 427 badges, SS trim, tinted windows, and big fat tailpipes
peeking out behind the rear tires really give this car a sinister
look. The Cortez silver paint has been neatly applied and polished
to a slick and reflective finish. Looking down the side of the body
it is nice and straight with smooth contours and crisp lines. All
the panels have been painstakingly aligned and the doors close
easily with minimal effort. All the bright work has a lustrous
shine. The bumpers have been re-chromed. The headlights and tail
lights are both crystal clear. It's rolling on a set of 15 inch
radial redline tires mounted to body colored still rims with
poverty hubcaps.
INTERIOR: Thoughtfully upgraded! They didn't lose the original look
and that's what I really like about it. Several upgrades include
Dakota digital gauge cluster with tachometer and digital display,
tilt column, Vintage Air electric climate control, Retrosound
digital stereo with hands-free calling, and Holley Terminator X
touch screen controller. The headliner, sun visors, carpeting, dash
pad, door panels, and rear shelf were all replaced. The front and
rear bench seats were both recovered and feel fantastic. The new
and upgraded 5 speed manual shifter sits proudly front and center
for you driving excitement.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Fuel injected fun! The 6.0 liter LS engine is
nicely dressed with a Holley EFI intake manifold, Holley Sniper
throttle body, blacked out A/C compressor, blacked out alternator
and much more. Upgraded aluminum heads are a very nice addition. It
is also equipped with a hydraulic clutch, new master cylinder, and
power steering. The radiator has also been upgraded with a large
aluminum unit, electric fan, and fancy overflow can. The steel cowl
induction hood lifts easily thanks to a set of EM strut assisted
hinges. The original cowl tag is still in place. All the hoses and
belts look like new. The underside of the hood, fenderwells, and
firewall have all been neatly painted black.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and inside the
jamb are both painted Cortez Silver. The weatherstrip was replaced
and the trunk light works. Inside is a very practical master kill
switch linked to the relocated battery inside a Taylor safety box.
The trunk pan is all clean rust free metal with a neatly applied
spatter finish paint.
UNDERSIDE: Ready to roll! The suspension has been upgraded with
coilover gas shocks, fat tubular control arms and swaybar. In back
it has new springs, bushings, shocks and upgraded with a swaybar.
The 4 wheel disc brake set up will stop you on a dime and even the
emergency brake is hooked up. Long tube headers lead to a new
Hooker stainless steel exhaust system with x-pipe, big fat tubes,
and tips that exit behind the rear tires. The gas tank and fuel
lines were both replaced and are compatible with the fuel
injection. Looking up at the 6.0 liter LS engine you'll see a nice
Holley aluminum oil pan and high torque starter. The upgraded
Tremec 5-speed manual transmission has a heavy duty scatter shield,
hydraulic clutch and a custom trans brace. A rebuilt driveshaft
transfers the power back to the 12 bolt posi rear end with upgraded
aluminum girdle cover. The floors are solid and rust free with nice
satin black finish paint.
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: Need to get your engine revving again? This easy to use
street beast will certainly do the trick!
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.
