Listing Description

Have you been looking for that just right "Double Nickel" hardtop that will light yer fuse? One that retains a "No Excuses" stock appeal with an adrenaline punch? Oh Yea!! You better STOP and take a look @ this unit!! Yep, with a short twist of the key, she snorts to life with an unmistakable crackle of high horsepower and exciting fun! A bucket of cash has been wrapped into this jewel and there will be no disappointments! With the above ideas in mind, let's get on with the rest of the story!

An obvious body-off restoration with a "No Expense" spared attitude! Finished in her factory Turquoise/White colors, the whistle straight body on this lady will take you back a step or two! From the firewall to the door jambs and on to the trunk, there is no question of the attention to detail! Every attaching nut, bolt, latch and/or hinge has either been replaced as new, polished and/or restored prior to reassembly! The same quality applies to all exterior body trim, grill and bumpers! Simply spectacular fit and finish in every nook and cranny! The only noted body modification is the high quality tubbing of the trunk rear wheel wells to accept the monster "Mickey Thompson" meats hidden within! Well, I could go on but if you have taken the time to review the 3 full web-pages of detailed photos, you get the idea!

On to the Chassis and Powertrain! Where do I start? Under the hood resides a crisp Small Block custom built by "Klein Racing Engines" that pumps out an estimated 500 + Horsepower! Fitted with a Stroker Crankshaft, High Lift Cam, Brodix Weld Tech aluminum Cylinder Heads, Edelbrock Intake Manifold, Holley 4bbl Carburetor and more! Passing the gas is a set of custom built HPC coated Indy Style Headers flowing into 3" inch exhaust pipes thru Dyna Flow Mufflers and finally exiting in front of the rear wheels directly thru the custom notched frame with sliced rectangular tips! Wow, you will dig the look and crisp sound! Keeping her cool is a custom aluminum radiator and high volume electric fan! A polished billet aluminum March fan belt system churns the Power Steering, Chrome Alternator and high flow H2O Pump! The rest is dressed with K & N full flow Air Filter system, polished alloy Valve Covers, braided hoses and more! Transfer of the power is connected thru a Scatter Shield Bell Housing, Balanced Clutch/Flywheel and controlled by a Corvette close ratio 4-Speed Transmission! The Drive Shaft spins straight thru a stout Safety Loop that also adds tons of rigidity to the frame! Churning the monster "Mickey Thompson" street meats and bringing the sticky rubber to the road is a Ford 9" inch Posi-Lock Differential attached to Racing Style suspension equipped with fully adjustable four link and coil-over shocks! Up front, GM Drop Spindles, sets her nose just a bit lower! And finally it must STOP, all four corners are set with GM Disc Brakes! Need I say more? Maybe, WE HAVE LIFT OFF!

Now, Hop Inside!! Very inviting factory style with a touch of class! The complete interior package by "Capella" is wrapped over factory seating and door panels! From the spectacular Headliner with perfect chrome bows to the tightly fitted convertible style carpet, factory chrome/stainless trim and body color finish, everything is superb! Nice upgrades include gauges by "Classic Instruments", updated Cassette Stereo, tilt steering column with billet knobs and polished billet Steering Wheel!

In Closing, a True Labor of Love! This 55 sets a sweet line between Stock Appeal and Pro-Street Feel! She is Fresh and very Streetable!!
