You will not find another Chevy like the one that you're about to view. Approximately a decade ago. this Chevy was pulled from captivity. here in the backwoods of Missouri. It was a solid foundation for what was to become a $60 k+ adventure. The Chevy was completely tore down. thrown on the rotisserie. and that is where the human mind ran wild.

What you're about to view is the work of a true craftsman. Someone with a vast imagination and a tremendous amount of respect for precision.

This Chevy is loaded with every modern amenity you can imagine. It runs and drives out better than a lot of the Pro Touring cars that I've seen. There has been a lot done to this Chevy so to make this a simpler read. I would like to break down exactly what new items were implemented in to this build as well as what modifications were concluded. Here is a list of those items:

Completely rebuilt 454 (built to stock specs. nothing

radical) with a 4 barrel AFB carburetor.

Completely rebuilt 350 Turbo Transmission (Again. nothing

radical. no shift kits. stalls. etc. ).

New Mustang II front end.

New four link rear suspension.

Rebuilt 9" Ford rear end with posi.

New front disc brake kit.

All new body bushings.

New AC/Heat system.

New electric windows.

Dual power seats.

All new interior that's been redone in Ultra Leather

(exceptionally soft. comfortable. and durable)

New Dakota remote entry door poppers with electric safety

pins & emergency cables as well as additional battery mounts (located under

the rear tail panel).

Custom made center console & dash.

New air ride suspension from Air Technology.

New IDivot tilt steering column.

New Billet aluminum pedals.

New Dakota Gauges.

All new glass.

Body mods that include suicide doors. chopped roof. custom

made tail lights. third light. rounded rear corner glass on both sides. drip

rails removed. head lights have been removed from the fenders and hidden

behind the front grille which gives the Chevy a much cleaner look. the

fender trim has been mildly modified to extend beyond the fenders (see

section between doors and fenders).

The entire front clip is mounted to a slide with electric

rams which push it open by six inches and lifts the entire front end

forward. All of which is controlled by a switch within the car or by the key

fob.

The rear deck lid is also on slides and can be opened

remotely as well.

Amazing isn't it? Just the time alone would bring this build well in to the six figure range. That isn't including the actual cost of what was spent to make this build happen.

The body of this Chevy was completely gone through. It is completely rust & bondo free. It is also 100% steel. All of the body panels line up extremely well. All of the body modifications were done professionally by the current owner and all of them compliment the overall clean and smooth body lines that the owner was striving to obtain. The paint on the car was also done professionally and is truly captivating.

Mechanically the Chevy drives out exceptionally well. It does not smoke. leak. or burn an excess amount of fluid. The motor runs out very well and with out hesitation. The 350 Turbo transmission also does not leak and it shifts flawlessly through its gears. The AC blows cold and the heat works extremely well. The electric poppers also work exceptionally well. The same can be said for the mechanical setup for the front end and deck lid.

The interior of the car is all brand new. It has no blemishes. no tears. no stains. When you open the doors. you can just smell the brand new leather. The seats within the Chevy are from a Lexus and they are exceptionally comfortable. Both front seats are electric and they both function perfectly.

There really isn't much more one could say about the Chevy. The photos and video located below should give a solid indicator as to the quality of this Street Rod. About the only bad mark I can really give the Chevy would be the wheel setup. The owner stated that he got to the end of the build and they were wheels that he had "laying around" so he utilized them. At that point he stated that he was tired of spending and was ready to put it on the road. In my opinion. a nice set of staggered Torque Thrust II's would put this Chevy right over the top.

I will be evaluating all reasonable offers and I will in fact sell the Chevy early as we do have

it for sale "locally". My goal here is to sell the Chevy. I strongly encourage anyone who is interested to

please call or email to schedule a time to come check it out. I would also like to add that I am usually on the phone from 7

AM until about 12 AM so you are always welcome to call and if I do not

answer. just leave a message and I will return your call immediately. I

know from my own experience with purchasing cars online. most of the time

it is very difficult to get someone on the phone and to obtain the

information you need. So I try to always stay on top of emails and phone

calls. We do have a clear title for this Chevy. As always. good luck and happy bidding!

Thanks. /

Shawn
