Description

You are looking at a one off example of a pro touring/resto mod type car. The body is very straight with NO RUST or rot. There IS signs of body work (NOT by me) in the rear passenger quarter. It looks like someone rolled the fender and corrected it with some bondo. The paint is 6/10 with some orange peel on trunk, a few paint chips around the hood/fender area and rockers. There is no rust bubbling under the paint etc. All windows/glass is solid along with common drainage areas. She starts on first try...and idles fine.
The swap was done correctly as a lot of man hours were put into the swap. The swap is a LT1 from a low mileage & neglected C4 corvette. T56 trans & Stage 3 clutch. Hotchkis/Speed Tech suspension with Signature by TRSD brakes all the way around. FreshMagnaFlow 3" exhaustsystem, Posi 10 bolt rear end. Summit 650 carb, edelbrock cleaner, in line fuel pump, stock fuel tank, all new fuel lines, racing bucket seats, custom wheels with Nitto Nt555 tires(good tread)4pt roll cage but still has the back seats. Interior is complete minus a headliner trim peice. No leaks, overheating or stalling.AC components are al there but NOT hooked up.
Cons:
Factory gauge cluster does not work but illuminates. Driver side window needs window guides. The car runs and drives very strong but has some throw out bearing chatter. This noise goes aways once driving & clutch is pressed in. I would recommend a EFI setup to utilize the full potential of this setup as she runs rich. Back seats CAN be used, but cross bar is recommended to be taken out so kids etc can sit safely. No seat belts. Could use a brake booster for better stopping power. Electric choke NOT hooked up.
I have NEW in box: wiper arms, inside mirror, outside mirrors, reverse lights, air vents, and door locks with keys. All will come with the car. Not shown in pics.
