Description
The car has been refinished in black and white, and power is provided by a 283ci V8 topped with Rochester mechanical fuel-injection unit linked with a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission and a 2. 7:1 rear end. A roll cage is installed along with an aluminum rear bulkhead panel, a modified front bench seat with a custom inner bolster, and front and rear tire inspection portals. The chassis has been modified with six-lug wheel hubs as well as dual shocks on all four corners. The body was refinished in black and white during the refurbishment completed in 2023 and wears â??Fuel Injectionâ? badges on each quarter panel. Aluminum block-offs are installed in place of the headlights, and the side-exhaust outlets are routed through the frame and exit beneath each rocker panel. The car was converted to six-lug axle hubs and rides on 15â?³ steel wheels mounted with reproduction Firestone tires. The additional shocks in front are mounted to a welded riser aft of the upper control arm. Braking is handled by four-wheel drums with drilled backing plates for additional cooling. The cabin has been stripped and fitted with a bolt-in roll cage as well as a modified split bench seat with custom inner bolster added to the driverâ??s seat back.
