Engine
From the start we brought the car into the shop it was untouched all original car condition other then its upholstery. The old 6 banger was running but for what we expected from the car the tired mill was in need of an update. With that in mind a running 350 we had from a previous LS Swap became the prime candidate to get this car to the level we desired. After a thorough inspection we replaced all gaskets, timing chain, HV oil pump, RV cam, MSD ignition, HEI distributer, fuel pump, Edelbrock aluminum intake-carb, complete FEL PRO GASKET SET, 882 heads with screw in studs and valve guides. After assembly we dressed it in a 283 appearance with our signature detail work. Its clad in a single stage GLOSS light green metallic matching the interior accent. The engine runs as great as it looks and the engine tone has been softened by 2.25 custom mandrel dual exhaust OUT THE REAR with H-Pipe. A champion aluminum radiator keeps it cool and a GM 1 wire maintains the battery. The old cast Iron powerglide had to go as well the only trans that we found sufficient for a daily driver worthy cruiser was the 700r4 4spd overdrive trans. despite its not very visible its been painted to match the engine and shifts smooth.
Suspension
We couldn't stop at the engine, Stance is always important so BIG BRAKES, BIG BILLET'S and AIR RIDE was mandatory. The NEW 20x10-18x8.5" Billet Specialties Polished Daggers were the perfect look for the car. They are wrapped in new rubber with a slightly stretched look. We are a professional installation shopand every air ride install is done to be as maintenance free as possible. A pair of NEW Viair 400s was used to control air supply to the 5gallon reserve tank. The self contained unit is built in house and features stainless 3/8 quick disconnect fittings throughout and its mounted firmly in the trunk. Airslammit bag plates, Airmaxx bags, Airlift valve manifold keep the ride control perfect at the push of a button. The controls are mounted under dash with a VIAIR gauge mounted in dash to monitor pressures. A set of 13' C5 corvette brakes was mounted up front with drilled rotors and with full power discs, stopping this barge is effortless. It still reatains its factory sway bar and a new set of Monroe shocks has been intstalled at all 4 corners.
Body
The body is in great shape, its had some work done over the years and is gaining a very cool patina. From above and below its easy to see that this car was rarely left out in the weather. Underneath is rock solid in and outer rockers look great and its all pictured below. The paint is faded and distressed in areas but overall the body is in good shape for its age, areas of concern are pictures below in High detail. there are no rust holes but it does have a couple very small blisters. The glass is in driver quality thefront windsheid looks original and shows its age. Chrome and trim are in Drivers condition and in very presentable condition.
Interior
The interior is in very good shape the seats and door panels have been recovered at some point with very little wear. It is a very comfortable car and exploits a custom appearance that stands out well with the colors of the car. Everything works like it should including all lights gauges wipers and signals. The visors are the only pieces missing and can be purchased and easily installed. The 700r4 is still column shift and its made possible by Lokar kit. All the windows go up and down.
