This is a very nicely done, finished, detailed and chopped Henry steel highboy on an equally nice P&J chassis with three pedals. Powered by a very stout 355 Chev roller engine this hot rod is also very driver friendly with no bad habits. Behind this engine which has aluminum heads, pan, timing cover and intake is a Lakewood scattershield and a recent Tremec 5-speed replacing the original Muncie. After the new, balanced drive shaft is a new Winters V8 Quickchange with 4:11 final ratio. This QC is by far the most quiet QC I have seen and there have been a lot of them. This may be due in part to the helical gear set and expert assembly. Stopping this car is a full set of traditional Ford drums with the newer style in front, older rear and real Buick Aluminum drums. Nothing fake on this car. Brakes are powered by a dual master and clutch is a smooth and easy hydraulic unit with hydraulic throwout bearing. Lots of chrome, stainless and polished aluminum and a very nice finished interior and trunk. All electronics work well including a remote battery shut-off. Note: AC compressor will need service or replacement. Fuel tank has pop up door fill on driver side and fuel system is all AN from tank to Edelbrock carb including two filters, shut-off valve, chrome pump, chrome regulator and polished lines. Sanderson Lime Fire headers to a very nice full exhaust with the sound that makes you turn around at a show. Everything is top shelf on this car and with 5k miles it has proven to be dependable. Price is firm at $63k but will look at trades plus cash. No glass unless it is a Corvette mid year and as always, No test pilots. Thanks
