INTRODUCTION: Wicked fast! If a 632 cubic inch, 815 horsepower
crate V8 doesn't get your juices flowing, check your pulse! Frame
off restoration with lots of driver friendly upgrades including,
fuel injection, air conditioning, Tremec 5 speed, custom interior,
and much more. This one is built to the hilt and not for the faint
of heart!
EXTERIOR: She's got the look! The Gulf Green paint was neatly
applied and polished to a reflective finish. The black racing
stripes are also painted on and really enhance the overall
aesthetic alongside the cowl induction hood. All the panels have
been painstakingly aligned and the doors close easily with minimal
effort. The bright work has a lustrous shine. All the glass was
replaced plus it has new rubber seals and fuzzy strips. LED
headlights and dual side view mirrors are much appreciated options.
The front grille appears to be brand new. The ensemble is rolling
on an attractive set of 17x9 SS billet wheels with Nitto
performance tires.
INTERIOR: Custom and comfortable! I love the Dakota Digital
Retrotech gauges that are backlit and include a very useful
tachometer. It also has an upgraded Vintage Air climate control
panel with easy to use electric slides. A retro stereo, USB port,
and rear JBL speakers keep the good vibes going. I'm sitting on a
very comfortable and attractive reclining TMI bucket seat. In back
is a matching TMI bench seat. Lots of other brand new parts
including side panels, armrests, window cranks, and fresh carpet on
the floor with reproduction floor mats. It also has a nice
reproduction console with 5 speed manual shifter sticking out of
it. The tilt column, cushion group wheel retractable, front
retractable seat belts, headliner, and sun visors are all nice and
new. The car was rewired including full harness and an updated
push-in fuse block.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Goodness gracious! A BluePrint Crate Pro Series
632 cubic inch big block making 815 hp & 775 lbs of torque steals
the show! It has a forged crank, rods & pistons, roller cam,
aluminum heads, and high rise intake manifold. Dyno tuned right at
the assembly plant. It also has a custom made S3 ECU EFI Harness,
Hooker Super Competition coated headers, Accufab throttle body fuel
injection, Wilson manifold injectors, MSD ignition system and
polished valve covers. The front of the engine has an EM
frontrunner system with all polished components including the mini
A/C compressor, serpentine pulleys, Powermaster one wire
alternator, and modern power steering with remote reservoir. It
runs cool with an upgraded aluminum radiator including overflow
bottle, water pump, and dual electric fans. The chrome hose clamp
covers are a very attractive finishing touch. It also has a Optima
red top gel battery and the squirters are hooked up. Upgraded
billet aluminum strut assisted hinges help you lift the hood
effortlessly. The engine bay is nearly painted body color and has a
nice 1972 Chevelle front filler panel.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Painted and proper! Under the trunk lid, inside
the jamb, and the entire compartment has clean rust free metal
painted Gulf Green. It has a custom cut carpeted mat with bound
edges and a piece of insulation underneath it to keep things dry.
The weatherstrip was also replaced.
UNDERSIDE: Body off frame restored and highly upgraded! The front
steering and suspension was completely replaced with beefy tubular
control arms, coil over adjustable gas shocks, and a fat swaybar.
In back it has tubular control arms, swaybar, lowering springs, and
Fox adjustable gas shocks. Long tube headers connect to a fat dual
exhaust system with crossover pipe, Flowmaster mufflers, and
stainless tips exiting under the rear bumper. The fuel system was
completely replaced including new lines. Upgraded front brakes with
a Wilwood Superlite big brake kit including drilled and slotted
rotors and 6 piston calipers. Also has new 11" disc brakes in back
and the emergency brake is hooked up. When looking up at the engine
it has an extra capacity oil pan and a high torque starter. The new
Tremec TKX 5-speed manual trans also looks great and has extremely
upgraded Cryo treated internals, heavy Duty scatter shield, billet
flywheel, and Centerforce dual friction hydraulic clutch. A race
balanced driveshaft transfers all those horses to an American
Powertrain 9 inch rear end with 3.70 posi gears and 31 spline
axles.
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: Don't think twice! A car this good looking and fast
will fly off our showroom floor just about as quick as it will go
down the quarter mile! Hang on tight because it's going to be a
wild ride!
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.
