1965 Chevrolet Chevy II Description

First-generation Chevy IIs were an instant hit on the racing scene because it was the best way to drop the largest V8 powerplants into the smallest package. It's what made the car a sleeper legend, and today this 1965 Chevrolet Chevy II is a modern interpretation of that speedy icon. After all, once you look past the great paint and A/C interior, you'll find a fuel-injected LS1 Chevy heart.Chevrolet made these cars sleepers from the factory, and that attitude has served it well right into modern times. Rendered in extremely slick and fashionable two-tone white and orange, this is the product of a quality restoration that really made sure the paint looked nice and the panels were at their best. And while everything was being looked at, it was also made sure that the bright bumpers and grille remained mirror-like. But we have a feeling that there was not too much serious work needed on this car. The coupe started out as a low mileage (28K) example, before being transformed into something a bit more wild 21K miles ago. Today it certainly looks more aggressive with features like the black b-pillars that match the tinted new windows, chrome fuel cell filler cap, and 15-inch Billet Specialties polished alloy wheels.Inside, the fresh seat covers, matching door panels, new headliner, and plush carpeting are all great investments for any classic. But then you sit behind chrome and carbon fiber steering wheel, and you instantly realize this is far from stock. The original dash panel now has space for great upgrades such as the AM/FM/CD stereo with a USB input to interface with the most modern devices. Plus, the R134a air conditioning is a great way to stay cool while looking cool in this Chevy II. As you look over the full set of Dolphin gauges, you get the feeling there's something special in the engine bay even before you twist the key and hear it roar.When you open the hood, everyone will instantly start asking questions about the much more modern V8 that fills the engine bay. You're looking at a 5.7-liter fuel-injected LS1 V8. This is far more modern than anything from the '60s, and when it was the top motor in cars like the fourth-generation Camaro, it developed well over 300 horsepower. That makes this Chevy II a hot little number. But power is nothing without control. That's why you have an upgraded front suspension with tubular A-arms, a sway bar, and four-wheel disc brakes. But more than just a pure performance machine, this has great anytime driving features such as power steering and a four-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive. That's why the thoughtful build also has an aluminum radiator with a large electric fan the car wants to make sure it stays cool no matter if it's on a performance run or just sitting in traffic with the A/C running.Here's a turnkey classic that looks this good and is ready for everything you are. An ideal mix like this is usually not this obtainable, so hurry and call today!!!
