INTRODUCTION: It would cost a quarter million dollars to duplicate
this at any professional shop! The list of modifications and
upgrades is almost endless. This show quality car can be taken to
any show or go on a spirited drive to get ice cream!
EXTERIOR: There's an extensive amount of custom body modifications,
some subtle and some more drastic. It's been cleaned up with
Kindigit flush door handles, tucked and smoothed bumpers, and a
relocated flush fuel door. The rain gutters were shaved, emblems
trim and antenna were filled and removed. The rockers and lower
fenders were extended down and notched for the exhaust tips. More
drastic modifications would include the steel front lower valance
with air dam and a reverse opening shaker hood. The gorgeous two
tone metallic blue and silver paint is polished to a smooth, glossy
finish and is split up with a thin lime green stripe. The window
moldings have been blacked out along with the grill and custom tail
panel. The lights are upgraded with LEDs and the front turn signals
are discreetly incorporated into the valance. The taillights are
sequential and there are custom side markers on the � panels. There
are less than 200 miles on the tires and wheels. The 17 inch B/G
Rod Works wheels are wrapped in Toyo performance tires, wider in
back.
INTERIOR: The interior is quite extraordinary, done tastefully and
professionally. It's wrapped in leather with lime green stitching
to match the exterior stripe and is backlit with blue LEDs. There's
no shortage of luxury features either: both of the sport seats
recline and the driver's is power. The windows and locks are power
too. The Alpine touch screen stereo is Bluetooth with handsfree
calling and there is no shortage of speakers! The custom door
panels and dash pad are impressive but check out the console and
behind the seats! The center console door slides open to expose the
power window and lock switches, electric e-brake button and cup
holders. The back is completely reimagined with upholstered panels,
carpeted closed compartments and backlit speakers. The headliner
and visors are a rich alcantara material, down on the floor is
premium carpet with custom cut mats. The gauges are blue digital
and the tilt column has a steering wheel wrapped in the matching
leather with lime stitching.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This is a very custom compartment and at the
heart of it is a Cobra 4.6L aluminum motor featuring overhead cams,
32 valves and fuel injection. It's topped off with valve covers
painted to match the car and a shaker hood scoop. It uses a
serpentine belt system to run the air conditioning, modern
alternator and custom power steering with a remote billet
reservoir. An aluminum radiator and expansion tank with an electric
fan keeps it cool. Power brakes make stopping easy. The engine bay
is fabricated smooth with punched holes and mesh screens, unlike
any other.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Hit the power trunk release to see a cleanly
boxed and carpeted compartment. The battery is hidden behind the
right panel and a big subwoofer is behind the left. Under the trunk
lid and jamb are painted slick.
UNDERSIDE: There are many upgrades under this car too giving it
sports car like handling. Upfront is a Mustang II suspension with
tubular control arms, coilover adjustable gas shocks, rack & pinion
steering. It has a TCI tubular center frame connector structure
with a driveshaft loop and torque arm. In back are tubular control
arms, TCI rear torque arm suspension and frame connectors, RideTech
coilover adjustable gas shocks, swaybar, shock mount cross member
and panhard bar. The brake system was completely upgraded and has
discs at all 4 wheels and an electric e-brake system. The hand
fabricated exhaust was neatly installed, has welded joints and
stainless tips that exits through the rocker panels. The fuel
system was replaced including the tank. Looking up at the aluminum
motor it has a remote oil filter and a high torque starter. The
trans is upgraded with a Cobra TR-3650 5-Speed manual. The 9 inch
rear has 3.55 posi gears. It is very detailed under this car,
complete floors, rockers and frame rails are smooth, clean metal
that were painted in the factory primer. The suspension is either
the blue body color or gloss 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 service the essentials on every car
we sell.
CONCLUSION: There's no taking a glance at this car, there is so
much to identify and appreciate in, out and under. Get it on the
road, that's where it can be really appreciated!
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.
