Lot #659 - Built to be driven, this car provides the ultimate in classic-car looks, performance driving and the reliability of a new car. It began with an amazing, rust-free classic, with all-original body panels. From there, the evolution began. The car currently has 2,497 miles since completion. Though there are small upgrades, like an Ididit tilt steering column, air conditioning and digital gauges, the interior remains mostly stock. Under the hood is a 496ci big-block Chevy engine that boasts 650hp, with Rocket Muscle Cars built headers linked to a Tremec 6-speed manual transmission. It has been mini-tubbed to accommodate a Ford 9" rear end built with 4:11 gears and has a one-off custom-built suspension with all-stainless fasteners and powder-coated by Rocket Muscle Cars. Custom-built American Racing wheels with custom back spacing are the perfect fit for this car. Stopping is no problem for this powerful Pro-Tourer, with a Wilwood manual big brake kit. At the front corners, this car has 14" 6-piston calipers, and at the rear it has 12" 4-piston calipers.
