Lot #691.1 - This stunning 1951 Deluxe hardtop has been built to be the ultimate cruiser with new modern suspension and drivetrain, along with other amenities. The build began with a super solid car with absolutely no rust, rot or damage of any kind. The car still shows its original factory primer on the underside of the floor pans, therefore it wasn't painted over. All seams and body alignment are excellent, with a superb fit and finish. The car is super-tight and sound on the road with a smooth ride, and the LS engine really takes the car for a ride. All lights, gauges and air conditioning work properly, and the car is turn-key, ready to go. With less than 3,000 miles clocked since completion, all the bugs have been worked out and the car is ready to show and go. It’s powered by a fuel-injected LS 5.7-liter V8 engine, 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission and a Chevy 10-bolt rear axle. This Deluxe features a Heidts IFS tubular front suspension, Wilwood six-piston four-wheel power disc brakes, power rack & pinion steering, and new Performance wiring. The two-tone green leather interior includes air conditioning, Ididit chrome tilt column, Kenwood stereo and Classis Instrument gauges. The exterior is finished in show-quality green metallic paint with all new chrome, stainless and glass. It rides on new 18-inch chrome Ridler wheels.
