EXTERIOR: .....
All steel body except the 2 rear fenders. The Poppy Red paint is vibrant and reflective. It was laid out with expert detail then polished to a smooth and shiny finish. All the panels were wonderfully aligned with gaps that are consistent and spot on. Looking down the side of the 100% laser straight body there is not a wave or ripple in sight. The door handles were removed and now pop open electronically via remote control. All the glass is smoked. The rubber seals, and fuzzy strips were replaced as well. It has electric wipers and dual mirrors. The headlights have integrated turn signals and the taillights were also upgraded plus a 3rd brake light was molded in under the rear window. It has a flush mount power antenna and gas cap. The front grille was painted body color and the side vents match it perfectly. The bumpers are polished stainless and look fantastic. It has running boards you can stand on, covered with original style ribbed rubber. It's sitting pretty on staggered chrome American Racing wheels wrapped in radial tires that are size 225/70HR15 in the rear.
INTERIOR: Totally tricked out! Full custom tweed professional upholstery! Absolutely beautiful top to bottom. The upgraded gauges by Classic Instruments fit the style and colors of this car perfectly. The dash and custom center console are painted just like the body. Air vents were added to the dash. The center console houses the modern stereo, cb radio, power window switches, cup holders, hand brake, and Vintage Air climate controls. It has a tilt column and a leather wrapped banjo steering wheel. The custom lowback bucket seats by Kasper recline, have sweet tweed upholstery, and are very comfortable. The rear custom seats have matching upholstery with the battery hidden under the passenger side. The door panels, side panels, headliner, and visors are finished in matching tweed also. The car was totally rewired with Ron Francis wiring and has extra speakers neatly concealed behind the panels too. The aftermarket gas and brake pedals are comfortably spaced out for easy use. The carpet was replaced, and it has custom floor mats as well.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Clean and custom! 350 V8 crate engine rated at 330 horsepower. It has a Holley carburetor, GM Performance intake, Vortex heads, Street Performance headers, and much more. A Bitchin Products air cleaner, ribbed chrome valve covers, and matching spark plug wire holders really dresses up the bay nicely. It's equipped with air conditioning and power brakes. The firewall has been smoothed and painted just like the exterior. Struts easily hold up the steel hood with a body color painted underside. The latch mechanism was also replaced.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Fully finished! Inside the jamb is neatly painted just like the body and the weatherstrip was replaced. The bottom side of the power trunk lid is nicely upholstered and has a billet aluminum hinge. The reminder of the trunk is all beautifully boxed, carpeted, and upholstered to match the interior.
UNDERSIDE: Frame off build on a TCI boxed chassis! The front suspension and steering were upgraded to a Mustang II style clip with a swaybar, rack & pinion, tubular control arms, modern shocks/springs etc. Out back has fresh leaf springs with lowering blocks and new shocks too. It's equipped with power front disc brakes and all new lines. The exhaust system is totally sweet and all stainless steel, even the Glass pack style mufflers. The 20 gallon gas tank and all the lines were also replaced. Looking up at the 350 V8 crate engine it's very clean and neatly painted red. The Turbo 350 automatic transmission looks recently serviced with a fresh linkage and finned cooler too. A custom driveshaft leads back to the beefy Ford 9" rear end with 3.73 gears. The floors are all clean and solid metal, neatly painted black. The TCI boxed frame with lots of structure and extra supports was also prepped, painted, and clear coated.
SERVICE: Our shop manager thoroughly inspected this car, and we adjusted the idle, adjusted the door striker, and replaced the fuel pump.
This car is just built right! All the custom work and modern amenities make this hot rod a no brainer! On top of that, it is absolutely exquisite as well!
