If you like attention this is the car for you. It has never failed to draw a crowd and win an award. The car was fully rotisserie restored. The paint and body is very straight. Only the best PPG materials was used. This is a very classy two toned paint job with a custom hockey stripe. The underside was sprayed with a black bed liner for a clean look and to protect it from water and debris. The wheels are Billet Specialties 18x10 in the rear and 18x8 in the front. All of the trim has been polished and refinished. The door handles, cowl grill, emblems, marker lights, and extra holes under the hood were all shaved to add to the sleek design. The doors are opened with a key fob via door poppers. It also has power windows. The hood is designed like the original 6 pack lift off hood only with the convenience of having hood hinges and a latch. The car also has 4 wheel powered Wilwood disc brakes. The car has power steering and heat. The suspension consists of new leaf springs in the back and a coil over suspension in the front and sway bars in both the front and the back. It also has all new polygraphite bushings. Tubular supports were added under the hood and sub-frame connectors were added underneath to stiffen up the chassis. The car handles very well. The rear gear is a posi-trac 3.91 ratio. The transmission is a heavy duty Keisler TKO 600 5-speed with overdrive. The car has great bottom end power and also can cruise at about 72mph at 2000rpm. The inside consists of two bucket seats and the bench seat in the rear all wrapped in black leather and silver leather which has been stamped with a snakeskin pattern. The center console, door panels, and dash pieces were custom built and wrapped in leather. The steering wheel is a Billet Specialties wheel to match the car's wheels. The gauges are by Autometer. The interior was wrapped during the build with dyno mat extreme to help with noise and heat. The sound system consists of a touch screen Pioneer DVD player with two 5.25" Kicker speakers in the door panels and two Kicker 6x9's in the package tray area. The USB cable is in the center console. In the trunk is two Kicker 10" subs and a Kicker amp. The battery is also located in the trunk. The trunk floor has carpet and the two side panels and sub box are wrapped in leather. The car has 3" exhaust with electronic cutouts and 2 chamber Flowmaster mufflers connecting to Hooker ceramic coated headers. The engine is a fully roller stroked and bored 500" 440 block. It has ported and polished aluminum Edelbrock heads with a multi-angled valve job. The internals consists of all forged parts including an Eagle crank, Scat rods, Weisco pistons and ARP bolts. The compression ratio is 10.5 to 1. The engine was professionally built by Gary Grimes with Twister engines. The intake is a Mopar m1 single plane intake with a holley carb. The Comp cam is a big hydraulic roller cam that sounds awesome and is very streetable. It makes great power all through the rpm range. When on the engine dyno the motor ran out of carberator cfm and still made 579hp at 5400rpm and 625ft/lbs of torque at 4300 rpm all while running on pump gas. The car also has MSD Ignition. The engine is kept cool by a large aluminum Griffin radiator with dual electric Spal fans. There is a billet March serpentine system out front. Please contact me with any questions and thank you for your interest. I also have build pictures if you are interested. This is an awesome one of a kind car that grabs a ton of attention and is a blast to drive. Ad provided by OldCarOnline.com/cond>
