one owner since the completion of its' full restoration and build
in 2008. Its powered by a bored and stroked 350 which equates to
the total displacement to 383 C.I.D. and a calculated 475
horsepower with an Eagle rotating assembly, Keith Black pistons,
Crane Cam, polished Edelbrock aluminum Air Gap intake sitting atop
a custom built set of Dart Pro Comp Heads with roller rockers and
the fire is controlled by MSD. A "March" polished serpentine belt
pulley system houses the polished mini a/c compressor, power
steering pump and a chrome alternator. Hooker shorty headers with a

custom built 4L80 automatic transmission is handling all that power
and transferring it to the payment and is computer controlled by a
Compushift unit located in the glovebox. That drivetrain is held in
place with a custom G-Force cross member. Lowered 3 inches in the

connectors. To stop all that power a Wilwood 4 wheel disc brake
system with slotted and cross drilled rotors were employed with a

held together by full stainless steel lines and AN fittings. All

new 4L80 transmission and a custom fabbed front grill and split
bumpers along with a smoothed front valance to finish out the
bodywork. The car is adorned in a House of Colors "True Blue" Pearl
