Here we have by coupe, 've been building this car for the last 2 1/2 years. Started off a bone stock coupe with 57,000 original miles. After driving the car for several years I wanted a traditional ride but with modern suspension and drive train. I started off with a Fatman fabrications frame stub for the front. Out back I went with a 4 link and a ford 9" out of a 70 ford Torino. same width as stock rearebd. New brakes wheel cylinders lines ect. The power plant is a Chevy 350 backed with a 700r4 trans. I am using bowtie overdrive TV cable setup designed for tri power and 700r trans. I used the 3 speed shifter to shift the 700r trans like an automatic. Looks original and works. The Chevy carb setup is completely rebuilt by Joe Couzzi from Atascadero, 0+ years exp. Rochester 2gc carbs, olished edelbrock intake stainless fuel lines and old fuel O reg. I had a custom made radiator built from brass works expensive but done right. Backed by electric fan with temp thermostat to turn on off. Power brakes custom made brackets to keep original pedal and location. New exhaust that runs through frame done by Bear Metal Kustoms in Morro Bay. The suspension is powered by accuair ELevel system. It is mounted on the inside driver kick panel. 3 speeds and 3 ride heights. Very Cool and expensive. Front seat was reupholstered black and white tuck and roll. Black carpet and original headliner still in great shape. All gauges work but am using aftermarket temp gauge. I have a nos temp gauge that I was going to send out to have if lengthened. Spot light still works and is 6 volt, igarette lighter works and is also 6 volt. Gas gauge is using a reducer 12-6 volt and works. The heater also works and is 6 volt. 12 volt to 6 volt reducer behind speaker grill. Front bumper brackets shortened 2 1/2 inches to bring closer to grill. Custom made fender skirts to make that look they are flush with body. All lights work, urn signals done light ect. Car comes with original keys, wners manual snd work book. Original paint has great patina and shows its age. It doesn't have super glossy new paint. Please look at all photos. There is no rott body, loors trunk ect solid no rust!!!The only reason for the sale is to get another 54 Chevy ht so my entire family can Cruz together again. Serious buyers only please. What needs to be done. This ride is just about complete but it needs the following, rakes bleed again still a little soft, inal timing and a Frontend alignment. Sold as is. If you can't purchase please don't bid. Car runs and drives but to be safe wouldn't drive until everything was completed. Also comes with battery tender to keep setting on accuair system while sitting. Thanks for looking at my listing. I have pics of the build throught out.Traffic Viewer is not included in sale nor is the Madonna of the highway statue on dash.
