Gorgeous is the first impression you'll have as you approach this car. You'll notice little things like excellent panel gaps, liquid black paint, gorgeous chrome, and the understated details. The bumpers are straight and shine like new. The stainless trim is exceptional and the polished 17” Torq Thrust II's at all four corners offer up a modern take on a retro theme. The stance is right: Low enough to look awesome but high enough to clear everything you'll find on the road. Xenon headlamps light your way, while those behind will clearly see the LED tails. Expertly tinted windows complete the black-and-chrome décor.

Sit inside and you're treated to period-correct upholstery, custom stitched for the '55 seat frame up front. You'll get your information from Classic Instruments gauges in the original dash while holding onto a leather and billet wheel on top of the Flaming River tilt steering wheel. Vintage Air keeps you cold or hot, power windows are at your side, a Classic Autosound stereo with trunk-mounted CD player keeps you entertained while the freshness of the work will keep the smile on your face.

Twist the key and fire the 350 Ram Jet engine to life. This is a thoroughly modern engine sporting a roller cam, Vortec heads and multiport fuel injection straight out of the box from GM. 375HP and 400lbs/ft of torque combined with great throttle response for a trouble-free, modern experience. A 700R4 overdrive automatic transmission feeds power back to a brand new Moser 12 bolt rear end. The intake manifold was polished, as were just about everything else bolted to the mill, including the billet valve covers, breathers and accessory drive system. Ceramic-coated headers lead back into a Don's-built, ceramic coated and mandrel bent 2.5” exhaust with an X pipe and Spintech mufflers. The sound is very mellow.

Underneath, you'll find clean sheetmetal coated in resilient bedliner. This isn't a show pony, and you don't need to fear driving it! Heidt's tubular control arms and sway bar work with the Unisteer rack and pinion kit to point you where you need to go, while the Posey's rear springs and sway bar kit make sure the tail follows as planned. Four wheel disc brakes are GM sourced parts for durability.

At the Motor Car Group, we're enthusiasts first. We want you to enjoy your new car from the minute it's delivered and the trailer door drops. Before a car leaves our shop, it's gone through comprehensively, both visually and mechanically. We do more than just kick the tires, though: We change every fluid from the oil to the differential to the brake fluid to the convertible top hydraulic oil. We do this after you buy the car so that your “maintenance clock” starts when you get it, and not months prior! We fill your tires with nitrogen, road test (if the weather permits us here in Cleveland!) and clean it inside and out. We buff the paint using a three-step process immediately before it's taken away so that it gleams when it arrives. Every car we sell, from Sunday drivers through the rarest exotics, is meant to be driven-get out there!
