Description
This stunning resto-mod build blends classic styling with modern performance and luxury. Under the hood sits a gm crate 6.2l ls3 v8 featuring an all-aluminum block and heads, forged internals, a roller cam, and a gm acoustic intake with custom cold air intake and engine cover. The powertrain is rounded out with stainless steel headers, a full 3 exhaust system, high-performance mufflers, and polished stainless tips---delivering both sound and performance.A gm 4l60e 4-speed automatic transmission with gm ecu and harness pairs seamlessly with a column shifter. Power is delivered to the rear via an art morrison ford 9 rear end with 3.73 posi gears and a custom driveshaft. Cooling is handled by an aluminum radiator, twin electric fans, and an aluminum water pump, while vintage air ensures year-round comfort.The full art morrison frame supports a resto-mod chassis equipped with tubular control arms, 4-link rear suspension, coilovers, sway bars, and wilwood front & rear disc brakes for precision handling and stopping power.Inside, the cabin features custom front and rear bucket seats wrapped in distressed tan and beige leather, a full-length custom center console with cupholders, switches, and a waterfall design. The dash retains its original look, now refinished with new chrome trim, integrated dakota digital gauges, and custom a/c vents. The budnik billet steering wheel, painted and wrapped in tan leather, sits atop a reproduction column.Custom tan carpet, sculpted door panels, billet handles, and a handmade headliner with matching sun visors complete the interior. A pioneer 7 touchscreen head unit is tucked into the console, powering premium pioneer speakers.The exterior boasts a fully restored original body finished in a head-turning custom pewter metallic paint. It features new fenders, quarters, and rockers, a smoothed and filled firewall, billet hood hinges, and a completely refinished trunk with custom panels and tubs. Budnik 20 spyder aluminum wheels wrapped in michelin radials provide the perfect stance, while all-new lighting, trim, glass, and power window mechanisms ensure modern functionality.This is a full frame-off restoration built on a new art morrison chassis---an elite-level classic with modern performance, reliability, and show-stopping detail throughout.
