Vehicle Description
The best restomods are the ones that are so stealth, you almost
don't notice the upgrades from the outside. In fact, can you tell
that this 1941 Chevrolet Special Deluxe has an award-worthy V8,
four-speed auto transmission, and air conditioning? Yes, it's that
cool.
This Chevy occupies that interesting space that lies in between a
cruising classic coupe and all-out hot rod. It looks like the
perfect pre-WWII gem, with its tall fenders and all that great
chrome intact on places like the big grille, bumpers, fender
accents, and sweeping lines that run the entire length of the body.
But, then you get a little closer. You start to realize that the
burgundy has a great metallic element that's usually reserved for
custom street rods. Someone invested plenty of time and money
massaging and straightening this body to make sure that paint
looked its best. Then you start to notice the more modern and wider
rubber on the polished wheels, and you might even spot the dual
exhaust tips. Your senses kick in, and you realize that you are
approaching what could be a sly street machine.
Once you open the door, you realize your instincts were quite
right. The custom leather interior is vastly more comfortable than
anything that came out of the '40s. The two-tone bucket seats have
a color scheme that flows onto the rear seats, door, and custom
center console to create a full uniform package that will get
people talking. But more than just look great, this one was built
to be comfortable with modern features like cup holders, AM/FM
stereo, a full set of auxiliary gauges, and ice-cold R134a air
conditioning. This is the kind of classic that's is easy to cruise
in and always looks great on arrival, and you understand that
spirit from the moment you grab the upgraded banjo-style steering
wheel.
Everything you've seen so far has hinted at something special
underneath the hood, and this powerplant does not disappoint. It's
a 350 cubic-inch V8 that has had so much invested in shiny
components that we dare you to find one more piece that could be
polished. So it's the kind of show-stopping presentation that we
bet could win awards all on its own. And when you look beyond the
shine, you'll see the substance of an Edelbrock four-barrel
carburetor, ProComp intake, and headers that add power as they feed
the rumbling dual exhaust. But there's much more to this custom
Chevy. Take a look at the undercarriage. There you'll notice the
upgraded independent front suspension, front disc brakes, and power
steering. Combine this with a 700R4 four-speed automatic
transmission w/highway-friendly overdrive, and you've got a great
custom machine to take you near or far. There's even an aluminum
radiator with electric fan so your V8 can stay cool even if you're
in traffic with the A/C pumping.
It's a true custom build that fits everything you could want. After
all, this Chevy is a powerful and unique hot rod that can also move
family and friends around in air conditioned comfort. What more
