The interior is re-upholstered in black leather with new carpet, visors, rear view mirror and sill plates. All new Sunpro gauges have been installed in the center cluster. The entire car has been fitted with new rubber molding and felts. It has a new convertible top, and door panels. Most of the dash pieces are original including the dash which I unfortunately cracked installing. If this is an issue I can order and install a new one. Custom Auto sound supplied the radio for the car.
I have installed a Centerforce dual friction weighted clutch with new bearings and flywheel. The shifter linkages have been replaced. The transmission is in fine order so I have not replaced it. The gas tank was removed and has been coated on the inside to prevent rust. The lines from the tank are now braided stainless steel running through a race fuel filter to a new Carter heavy duty fuel pump.
The engine is a 383ci block with Dart Iron Eagle heads (215cc). It has an Eagle crank kit with a decked and bored block. New Prothane motor and transmission mounts are installed. The specs on the Comp Cams Extreme Energy are 519/523 lift, and 294/306 duration, with 110 degreed lobe separation. The motor has a 7 quart racing oil pan with new pump. It has a 750 Holley double pumper carb with an Edelbrock dual plane intake. Compression is 10.5 to 1, runs on high octane pump gas, aluminum 427 radiator with twin electric fans and a mechanical fan. The intake, pulleys, water pump, valve covers, alternator, and brake reservoir cover are all chromed. The ignition has been upgraded to an MSD 6AL with a ProBillet distributor. It exhales through Hooker race headers into side pipes with through style mufflers. The headers and side pipes have been ceramic coated and the headers are also wrapped in heat tape for passenger comfort. This keeps the temperature down in the cabin.
The suspension has been disassembled and stripped of all paint and dirt. Everything has been painted and all bushings and bearings have been replaced. Upper and lower ball joints and 550 lb/in springs are new, as well as control arm shaft and bushings. End links have been upgraded to Urethane. A set of new shocks was installed at the same time.
All the universal joints have been replaced. The rear has been removed and rebuilt with 336 gears. New spindles, bearings, races and new brakes components including calipers, lines, stainless parking brake hardware and rotors have been installed. A fiberglass monospring has been fitted in place of the traditional heavy steel one. Heavy duty adjustable strut rods have been installed in favor of the flimsy stock ones. The trailing arms have been replaced with offset units.
The car has 15'' Torque thrust rims with B F Goodrich tires, 215 fronts and 255 rears. 3 coats of 2001 ultra white with a 1996 dark cloisonné poly metallic stripe has been sprayed on and wet sanded and buffed. A Lemans filler cap has been installed for aesthetic appeal. All chrome is new and in A-1 shape. A new front windshield and driver side glass window glass has been replaced. All stainless trim has been polished. The entire power steering system has been replaced with new parts, including the hoses, steering cylinder, control valve, pump, pitman arm, column coupler, tie rods and heavy duty idler arm.
I am sure I forgot something. If you have any questions feel free to email or call me. My name is Mike and my email is Mikel1969@comcast.net, my cell number is 717-577-6429.
This car is a real attention getter. It is bright and loud with a lumpy cam. It has won a judges pick the past 2 years that I took it to

Lifetime MemberThat is one fine looking ride, it must hurt to be selling it. If I had the means I would buy it in a heart beat. Great job on the pictures and vid. I have put out the word on this to some local groups.
