INTRODUCTION: Somebody doesn't know it yet, but they're going to get an incredible car! This isn't a made over, thrown together Chevelle. It's a purpose built hot rod loaded with high end components and executed extremely well. The result is an incredible looking car with the stance and presence you want, backed up by 800 horsepower and the performance to make it every bit as exciting to drive as it is to look at!
EXTERIOR: This one is absolutely stunning! The wheels are killer, the stance is right on, and the color is electric. Being a real SS, it has the signature bulged hood and the body panels are laser beam straight with excellent gaps, and there is no rust or damage showing. It's finished in a modern interpretation of Marina Blue- a little more vibrant and a touch darker than the original color. The metallic is laid out evenly, and the finish has been polished smooth and glossy like glass. There is no vinyl top, which really shows off the clean lines of the body. It is a very high quality paint job although it has picked up some imperfections, but overall it presents beautifully. It appears that all of the exterior trim was replaced at the time of restoration, including the chrome, moldings, emblems and bow-tie mirrors. Both the front windshield and rear window were replaced. It also has upgraded Holley headlights and subtle, thin hand painted pinstripes that add just the right finishing touch. The stance absolutely makes this car. It's rolling on killer Avant Garde wheels- 20 inches in back and 19s up front and all are wrapped in Continental Extreme Contact performance tires.
INTERIOR: The interior is awesome too! I love how it retains the original Chevelle character while being tastefully modernized with premium upgrades. It's a very fresh interior throughout, including an upgraded wiring harness. The dash maintains its factory style appearance but is filled with modern RetroTech gauges. The dash pad was replaced, as was the trim across the dash, and a RetroSound stereo fits right in without disrupting the classic look. The reproduction center console houses a billet shifter for the Tremec 5-speed. There's a tilt steering column topped with a premium leather wrapped Sparc steering wheel. Down low are upgraded billet pedals, brand new carpet that fits like a glove with sound deadener underneath. The sound system is upgraded with kick-panel speakers up front and 6x9s in back. The seats have been re-cushioned and reupholstered. The door panels, armrests and window cranks are new as well. There are seat belts for everyone, and looking up, the headliner, visors and mirror are new along with an LED dome light. From the upholstery and carpet to the dash, door panels and trim, nearly everything you look at or touch feels fresh.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This is a really, really well done engine compartment- 800 horsepower surrounded by premium parts and exceptional attention to detail! At the heart of it is an all aluminum 800 HP, 6.2L LS topped with a Whipple supercharger and controlled by a Holley Terminator X EFI system. A black Wegner Performance front drive system with serpentine pulleys, mini a/c compressor and a modern alternator completes the package, while Chevrolet script valve covers give it a clean, finished appearance. Premium black fittings and black braided hoses are used throughout, along with a catch can system and intercooler. A custom satin black cold air intake looks right at home, the firewall and inner fenders are smoothed for a clean, uncluttered appearance. Cooling is handled by a blacked out aluminum radiator with big dual electric fans, premium radiator hose clamps. The overflow bottle and power steering reservoirs are a matched set. It also features power brakes and a hydraulic master cylinder for the clutch. Billet hood hinges are another premium touch. Nothing looks like an afterthought or a collection of mismatched parts. From the plumbing and fittings to the finishes and component selection, this engine compartment has the look of a high-end professional build!
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid and the jamb are painted every bit as slick as the exterior. Inside, the metal is rock solid and has been lined with sound deadener, then finished with a fitted blue carpet mat. It's also complete with a jack and spare tire assembly. The battery has been relocated to the trunk for a cleaner engine compartment and is upgraded to an Optima battery secured in a billet hold down.
UNDERCARRIAGE: This is where you really see why this Chevelle performs so incredibly well. The chassis is loaded with high quality upgrades, starting with a complete Ridetech suspension. Up front it features tubular control arms, adjustable coilover gas shocks and a beefy sway bar, while the steering components have been rebuilt. In back is a Ridetech 4-link setup with heavy duty control arms, adjustable coilover gas shocks and another beefy sway bar. The brake system received a major upgrade as well, with a Wilwood big disc brake setup featuring drilled and slotted rotors at all four wheels and red calipers. Even the emergency brake is properly hooked up and functional. The exhaust is just as impressive- a great sounding, all stainless system with TIG welded construction, an X-pipe and Borla mufflers. The fuel system was upgraded to properly support the fuel injection and includes a custom stainless fuel tank. Looking up at the drivetrain, the engine has an aluminum Holley oil pan and a high torque starter. It's backed by a Tremec TKX 5-speed manual transmission with a hydraulic clutch and custom transmission support brace. A rebuilt driveshaft sends the power back to the 12-bolt rear end with 3.73 posi gears. Even the foundation is impressive. The floors appear to be very clean, dry, solid metal.

CONCLUSION: If you've been looking for an awesome muscle car, this is the one you want! You couldn't come close to duplicating this car for what you can buy it for today. Don't wait until somebody else puts it in their garage, this is “the one!”
