Every now and again a car comes along that makes us pause and think, this is the way it's done. THIS car is one of those cars.


Firstly, it's presented in stunning General Motors Neptune Blue metallic which almost looks as if it has a touch of pearl in it. The trim moldings, and most noticeably the rear quarter dressings, truly pop in the forefront of the dark blue. Those moldings are affixed to super smooth and straight steel panels. Gold fixtures adorn the front and rear of the car. LED brake lights are housed within the gold trunk lid “V.” All the glass and lenses look perfect. Play a game “I Spy” with the kids. See how many GM bow tie logos they can find around the exterior. We counted six. Craiger wheels hold each corner.


Inside the car is just like the exterior, a true joy. Have a seat and take in your surroundings. Feel the vinyl and cloth fabric. Grab hold of the adjustable 15 inch steering wheel. Notice the blend of original controls as well as the Dakota VHX analog and digital gauges. The ambient blue glow of the gauges is easy on the eyes and reminiscent of the exterior coating. Vintage air conditioning is there when called for. A CD changer is housed in the trunk while Kenwood provides the high fidelity. BlueTooth connectivity is available for hands free phone calls. This car has so many comforts you might forget you're inside a 1957 model year!


Finally let's talk about what's under the hood and underneath the car. A new General Motors 350 Ramjet power plant rests in the engine bay. Hedman ceramic coated headers lead to a PYPES stainless steel exhaust system which sounds amazing. A TCI Street Fighter transmission moves all that power to the rear Currie Ford 9” rear end with Track Lock. It has a 3.50 gear ratio. Cooling the power plant is a Griffin cross flow aluminum radiator equipped with dual electric fans. Stainless steel fuel lines, brake lines, and gas lines deliver fluids.


Honestly, the amount of thought and craftsmanship of the builders produced a winning car. This car has a WOW factor for us and we're sure it will for you as well. You cannot possibly build this car on your own for what we are asking for it.


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 road test (if the weather permits us here in Cleveland!) and polish it inside and out.


We're proud of our inventory and do our best in describing each example as accurately as possible. As with all classic cars, it can be difficult to know the true miles and history. Further, what one person sees is a gem, another person might not. So before making an investment, we encourage you to hire the services of a private inspector for a third party opinion. After all, we want you to be happy with your car for years to come!


No matter where you'd like your car shipped to, let us make the arrangements. We've shipped cars all over the world. Delivering your new ride in an enclosed carrier is nothing new for us. We'd be honored to arrange all the logistics for you! Every car we sell, from Sunday drivers through the rarest exotics, is meant to be driven-get out there!


If you have any questions before, during or after the sale, do not hesitate to contact us. It's what we're here for! Call us at (440) 914-0000, write to us at sales@motorcargroup.com or stop by and see the new shop at 6441 Davis Industrial Parkway, Solon OH 44139. We're 26 miles from Cleveland Hopkins Airport and we can pick you up when you come to inspect or purchase your car.


We welcome any prospective buyers, their buyer's agents or inspectors from Monday through Friday during business hours, as well as evenings and weekends by appointment. We're car people who love what we do, and you'll feel it from the first time you contact us. Give the R&H crew the opportunity to serve you: Our passion and attention to detail set us apart!
