Only 1,284 miles since a body off frame restoration! This is an exceptional car; I just did my inspection, and I am impressed. It is detailed, straight and put together right in every area.
EXTERIOR: What a beauty! I'm looking at this thing outside in the sunlight and can see the sparkle in the Black Cherry paint. The body is excellent, it is smooth right down to the rockers. Looking down each side it is straight, the body panels fit real nicely. It has an actual functioning cowl hood with the flapper door. It is polished smooth and glossy; the white SS stripes are correctly applied and are smooth to the touch. Up front the marker lights, bumper, grill, bezels all look like new. It even has reproduction T-3 headlights. The mirrors, door handles, all the stainless trim also looks new. In back it has new taillight lenses, bumper, and the correct SS pad. The black vinyl top is new too. I open the doors to see polished jambs, new weatherstrips, window seals and sill plates. We installed new BFG tires and 15x7 SS wheels.
INTERIOR: Now I'm sitting in the car, and it is restored from carpet to headliner. Down on the floor it has SS embroidered mats and a complete set of GM seat belts. The seats and headrests are reupholstered. It has reproduction door panels, armrests, and handles. In front of me is an all new dash pad, instrument bezel and heater control panel. Complete new set of SS gauges including the tachometer, the clock is working. There's a retro stereo in the factory slot and it's hooked to 6x9 speakers. The tilt column has a new deluxe steering wheel. Up above, the headliner, visors, mirror, and the dome light are new. It does have the addition of an oil pressure gauge mounted neatly below the dash because it was not part of the SS gauges. There's a pouch in the glove box with a new owner's manual.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It is restored and detailed like new. The correct 396-350 hp motor has a Chevy bowtie aluminum intake, a new 670 Holley carb and a set of Hooker headers. Then there's the complete cowl induction system, the cherry on top! It features power steering which looks new including the steering box, lines, and rag joint. It has power brakes with new master cylinder and cadmium plated booster. The alternator, wiper motor, fan shroud look new. All the metal surfaces are neatly painted with a smooth finish. It's complete right down to the reproduction hoses and clamps, Delco battery topper with spring clamp cables, hood insulation and the squirters are hooked up.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid and the jamb are painted smooth and glossy like the car. Inside is dry clean metal with a gray spatter finish. It has reproduction weatherstrip and trunk mat. It is complete with a painted SS wheel and a reproduction jack assembly.
UNDERSIDE: It has been body off frame restored and detailed to factory specs. It has the F-41 suspension, which includes boxed rear control arms, front and rear swaybars. All the steering and suspension has been rebuilt: springs, shocks, balljoints, bushings etc. The brake system has been restored. It has disc in front, new lines, hoses, and e-brake cables. The dual exhaust has great sounding Flowmaster mufflers with the correct SS tips coming out the back. The fuel system was replaced including the tank and lines. Looking up at the motor it is fresh Chevy Orange, the fuel pump starter and flywheel cover look new. The turbo 400 automatic trans also looks fresh. It has a restored driveshaft and in back is a correct 12 bolt rear end. Looking up at the floors they're all dry clean metal painted satin black. It has all been nicely detailed right down to the assembly line markings.
SERVICE: We inspected the car and replaced the carb with a 670 Holley, cleaned the reverse light sockets and headlight connections, fixed blower switch, recalibrated the speedometer, repaired the interior door pull, installed new BFG tires and new 15x7 SS wheels.
Very nicely detailed, fresh looking car top to bottom. Ready to cruise with your head held high!
