The seller states that the body was removed from the frame and fitted with reproduction quarter panels, door skins, grille, glass, General Motors–sourced front fenders, and an aftermarket cowl-induction hood. A repaint in black with a purple flame motif was carried out in 2019. Additional equipment includes chrome bumpers, a driver-side mirror, SS 396 badges, and dual exhaust outlets.
Aftermarket 15″ Torq Thrust–style E-T wheels are wrapped in 185-series Vredestein Sprint Classic front tires and 275/60 Nitto NT555RII rear tires. A coilover suspension system with adjustable rears has been installed along with a front sway bar. Braking is handled by SSBC Force 10 front calipers over slotted rotors paired with red-finished rear drums.
The cabin was stripped and fitted with Dynamat sound-deadening material over replacement black carpeting. A custom center console was fabricated along with custom door panels, rear bench seat, and front bucket seats before being wrapped in black leather. Additional equipment includes a Hurst shifter, a glovebox, a heater, and a Kenwood Excelon head unit paired with a trunk-mounted amplifier.
An aftermarket three-spoke steering wheel fronts Classic Instruments gauges that consist of a 140-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, a coolant-temperature gauge, and a trio of instruments mounted under the dashboard measuring oil temperature, fuel level, and voltage. The six-digit mechanical odometer shows 1,200 miles, and true chassis mileage is unknown.
The Merlin 572ci V8 is fitted with World Products cylinder heads and a Holley Dominator 950-cfm carburetor. Tubular Lemons Headers feed a custom 3″ exhaust system with a center X-pipe, and other equipment includes a serpentine-belt system, a Be Cool aluminum radiator, electric fans, and a K&N air filter. Service in December 2022 consisted of replacing the carburetor, fuel fittings, power-steering pump, and spark plugs.
A Tremec TKO five-speed manual transmission with a Centerforce clutch routes power to the rear wheels via a Moser Engineering differential with 4.10:1 gearing. The seller states that the frame has been powdercoated in black and the underside has been refinished in a matching bedliner-style material. Additional photos of the underside are presented in the gallery below.
Photos taken during the refurbishment process can be viewed in the gallery.
