DESCRIPTION
Real SS! Top ground up restoration! Born a California car that is complete with the original purchase order, window sticker and more! This restomod has certainly seen more smiles than miles since it\'s completion with just 3,260 miles on the odometer. And with the turnkey reliability of a fuel injected ZZ4 crate engine, the only thing you need to worry about is where\'s the next cruise night!
EXTERIOR: This car was done the right way! The builder started with a clean rust-free car then had it media blasted, and acid dipped before primer. Then the PPG Bright Blue Metallic paint was expertly applied with great attention to detail and brought to a very smooth and highly reflective finish that is truly stunning. Looking down the side of the body it is absolutely 100% laser straight. All the panels have been painstakingly aligned and all the gaps are spot on. The doors close easily like a new car. The NOS steel cowl induction hood was a very nice addition. All the glass is NOS too and the rubber seals/fuzzy strips have been replaced also. It has chrome dual side view mirrors. The front grill has been replaced with a very tasteful billet unit and all the chrome has been redone with a magnificent shine to it. The rear of the car is equipped with the correct SS tail panel and Super Sport emblems as well. The 17\" chrome Coys 5-spoke mag wheels were the perfect choice for this car and are wrapped in staggered size performance tires.
INTERIOR: It literally smells like a leather store in here! Almost everything is clad in beautiful light gray colored genuine doe skin leather including the headliner, sun visors, door panels, and 4 bucket seats. The seats themselves are by Teas Designs, they\'re very comfortable and give great support. The front two fully recline and all of them have seat belts. A custom fiberglass molded mile long center console with arm rests has been painted body color giving a very unique look. A B&M Pro Stick shifter nicely completes the center console. That leads to the body colored and custom molded fiberglass dash that houses a full array of Auto Meter gauges, custom radio, a/c vents, and climate controls. The custom dash was topped off with a pad that matches the upholstery. The steering column was replaced with a polished tilting unit by Billet Specialties and a billet steering wheel half wrapped in leather was also added. The door panels have molded arm rest and are equipped with Billet Specialties handles too. The gas and brake pedals were both replaced with billet aluminum units. The carpeting was replaced with beautiful and plush European wool. Additionally, 6\" x 9\" speakers were added to the custom upholstered rear shelf and kick panels as well.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This car is a lot more than just good looks! Under the hood we have a new 350 cubic inch ZZ4 crate engine that produces 385 horsepower. It\'s been topped off with a very stylish and polished Tune Port Injection system that provides turnkey reliability and worry-free cruising. It also has many other improvements like MSD ignition system, ARP polished bolts, braided lines, and serpentine belt drive system etc. The radiator has been upgraded with an aluminum unit that has an electric fan as well. It\'s equipped with power steering and air conditioning also. The brake master cylinder has been replaced with a very nice chrome one. The underside of the cowl induction hood, fender wells, and firewall are all very nicely painted and match the body perfectly. The factory cowl tag is in place.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and jambs are painted slick just like the body. The weatherstrip was replaced. The inside of the trunk has been fully boxed and carpeted using the same materials as the interior. It also has a 6 disc CD changer by Custom Autosound.
UNDERSIDE: Sporting a complete restoration the undercarriage looks outstanding! The entire steering system has been upgraded with a power rack & pinion. The front suspension has also been completely rebuilt with CPP tubular control arms and adjustable coilover shocks. The front was tied to the back with frame connectors to prevent twist. The rear suspension was redone with performance mono slip leaf springs and shocks also. It has disc brakes at all four corners and all new lines throughout. The rear brakes are a Willwood kit equipped with stainless steel rotors. It has long tube coated Hooker Headers leading back to a completely redone 2.5\" exhaust system that is complete with O2 sensors and Flowmaster mufflers. The fuel tank and hanging straps were replaced. The fuel lines were also replaced, and an external pump was wired in. Looking up at the crate ZZ4 engine everything looks great, and it\'s been dressed with a chrome oil pan. The new 200-R4 overdrive automatic transmission also looks great and has a new crossmember also. The power gets transferred through a custom driveshaft with universal k
