1973 Chevrolet Caprice 502 Restomod
Description
There is something absolutely awesome about a 1973 Chevrolet Caprice convertible restomod that has everything from a triple-black presentation to Lamborghini-style vertical doors. An oh yeah, and this full custom machine also has a huge 502ci V8 under the hood! But what's most amazing is that this total package is available right now for such an obtainable price.
We usually love these Caprice convertibles because they're a rare sight. Only the Corvette and premium wagons were more expensive back in the day, and so the production was relatively low. But rarity takes a backseat to why this one turns heads. The slick black paint has a luster that commands attention. And then you see the well-done brightwork with big chrome bumpers. And there's plenty of terrific details, like the fender skirts, full-length trim, clear blue-dot headlights, and the waterfall grille that even dips into the bumper. And of course, we all take note of the Davin 22-inch alloys with spinners that keep this car moving even when it's at stoplights. And you may have noticed that the door handles have been deleted. That's because they have a remote door opener, and that's not the most impressive part.
Both doors on this Caprice have a double hinge. So you can open them conventionally, or if you really want to draw a crowd, they have a vertical action like a Lamborghini. And these impressive doors are your gateway to a full custom interior. There are ostrich-like inserts in the seats door panels, and even the sun visors. There are even provisions for TV screens in the sun visor, too! Oh yes, this is a cool custom build! There are more great upgrades like an AM/FM/CD/XM stereo with Bluetooth and a flip-up DVD screen, a custom cup holder center console, power seats, power locks, and provisions for air conditioning. The steering wheel is black with wood accents to match the rest of the interior. And beyond that is a full digital gauge package. Plus, with power windows and a power convertible top, you never have to leave the driver's seat whenever you want to share this full custom creation with the world.
With all these upgrades so far, you better believe that the engine bay was done right, too. Those polished inner fenders funnel all your attention to the monster big block in the middle. The 502 cubic-inch V8 is the kind of displacement we all dream about, and this one goes a step further with performance upgrades like a Holey four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and long tube headers that feed the rumbling X-pipe dual exhaust. Plus, this has the right supporting components, like upgraded pulleys, an MSD ignition, and an aluminum radiator w/electric fans to help keep this big motor running cool even in traffic. And because you want to cruise this Caprice everywhere it has easy driving features like power steering, a three-speed automatic transmission, and four-wheel power disc brakes w/drilled rotors.
Time to get your hands on a triple-black big block street machine. Don't let this custom Caprice slip away, call today!
