INTRODUCTION: Scary fast & show quality! This SEMA car took 2,000
hours for professionals to build. At its heart is a supercharged
Hemi Hellcat producing a bountiful 750 horsepower. Pushing the gas
pedal feels like you are the projectile getting launched out of a
blow gun at 400 feet per second flying past onlookers in a blur and
not so silent whisper. This is a premium, this is uncompromised,
and this is totally insane (but in a good way)!
EXTERIOR: Only 1,000 miles have been accumulated since completion
so everything is super fresh and looking proper. I've never seen
many of the finishes they chose for this build, but they all look
amazing. Starting with the metal bumpers that were hydro dipped to
look like carbon fiber. Additionally, all the brightwork was coated
with a crinkle finish providing some unique texture and an
unmistakably attractive look. The paint job itself looks like it
costs more than a college education! It was applied with expert
precision then polished to an extremely reflective finish you could
read a diploma in. I really like the custom logos that were applied
by airbrush and are seamless to the touch. All the panels are 100%
laserbeam straight with smooth contours and sharp lines. They have
been aligned by a master craftsman, square and flush, with gaps
that are right on the money. All the glass is nice and clear with
new rubber seals and fuzzy strips too. I thought it was really cool
they used a GTS style hood with dual bulges and even retained the
fender mounted turn signal indicators, which pay homage to a much
more stock looking appearance. The custom made one-off wheels are
equally impressive with their sleek mechanical aesthetic and
staggered 18" front and 20" rear sizes. They are wrapped in a nice
set of performance tires.
INTERIOR: This has been completely redone with some really nice
finishing touches. My favorite part has to be the Kilduff Lightning
Rod shifter. Even though it's just for decorative purposes I think
it adds a really special visual that's extremely cool. The real
shifter is to the far left and functions like any common automatic
shifter. The gauge cluster has also been updated with a much more
modern and practical unit that also lights up nicely. Another sweet
upgrade is the modern stereo head unit which is both Bluetooth and
Sirius XM capable. Additional speakers have been added to the kick
panels and rear shelf. It has a full kit from Legendary Interior so
everything has been replaced including the headliner, sun visors,
seat upholstery, door panels, and carpeting. The Flaming River
waterfall steering wheel was a very nice choice, and a modern
electronic climate control was neatly mounted in the center
console. Billet aluminum air vents were craftily incorporated into
a custom wrapped dash and even the dome light is working.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Wow, this 6.2 liter Hellcat Hemi with a
polished Kenne Bell supercharger up top is nothing short of
impressive. A custom fabricated cold air intake pumps the air in,
and a nice set of TTI headers lets the exhaust flow out. Custom
Kenny Bell fuel rails and a serpentine front runner system round
off the nice clean look. A custom fabricated intercooler system
keeps the supercharger nice and cool. It has a factory computer and
wiring for practical reliability. The Wilwood dual reservoir master
cylinder is a much appreciated upgrade and also has a proportioning
valve. All the body panel hardware has been upgraded to stainless
steel. The underside of the hood, fender wells, and firewall have
all been painted to the same quality as the impressive exterior. Mr
Norms Resto Mod #002 fender tags are in place.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid and in the jambs, the paint
is laid out real slick with a smooth glossy finish. The
weatherstrip has been replaced as well. Inside, the compartment has
been neatly boxed and carpeted for a clean custom appearance. The
battery has also been relocated to the passenger side. Additionally
an aluminum reservoir was added that pumps fluid to cool the
supercharger and is cleverly hidden behind the drivers side
panel.
UNDERSIDE: Up front is a Gerst/QA1 suspension system with a
complete tubular engine cradle, tubular control arms, double
adjustable coilover gas shocks, heavy duty sway bar, plus
rack-and-pinion steering. Out back, it's upgraded with a four link
system, adjustable tubular control arms, double adjustable
coilovers, and another heavy duty sway bar. The fuel system has
been completely updated for the fuel injected engine, and stopping
power is handled by a Wilwood brake system with drilled and slotted
discs at all four wheels, along with a custom e-brake assembly. It
has a great sounding dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers and
turned down tips at the rear. Looking up at the motor, you'll see
an anodized extra capacity oil pan and high torque starter. The
4L80E overdrive automatic has been performance built to handle up
to 1,000 horsepower, sending power through a custom aluminum
driveshaft and a Strange Engineering 9-inch rear end that has 3.50
posi gears. The floors appear to be very solid originals, still
wearing their factory undercoat.
