First-generation Chevy IIs were an instant hit on the racing scene because it was the best way to drop the largest V8 powerplants into the smallest package. Its what made the car a sleeper legendand#44; and today this 1965 Chevrolet Chevy II is a modern interpretation of that speedy icon. After alland#44; once you look past the great paint and A/C interiorand#44; youll find a fuel-injected LS1 Chevy heart. Chevrolet made these cars sleepers from the factoryand#44; and that attitude has served it well right into modern times. Rendered in extremely slick and fashionable two-tone white and orangeand#44; this is the product of a quality restoration that really made sure the paint looked nice and the panels were at their best. And while everything was being looked atand#44; it was also made sure that the bright bumpers and grille remained mirror-like. But we have a feeling that there was not too much serious work needed on this car. The coupe started out as a low mileage (28K) exampleand#44; before being transformed into something a bit more wild 21K miles ago. Today it certainly looks more aggressive with features like the black b-pillars that match the tinted new windowsand#44; chrome fuel cell filler capand#44; and 15-inch Billet Specialties polished alloy wheels. Insideand#44; the fresh seat coversand#44; matching door panelsand#44; new headlinerand#44; and plush carpeting are all great investments for any classic. But then you sit behind chrome and carbon fiber steering wheeland#44; and you instantly realize this is far from stock. The original dash panel now has space for great upgrades such as the AM/FM/CD stereo with a USB input to interface with the most modern devices. Plusand#44; the R134a air conditioning is a great way to stay cool while looking cool in this Chevy II. As you look over the full set of Dolphin gaugesand#44; you get the feeling theres something special in the engine bay even before you twist the key and hear it roar. When you open the hoodand#44; everyone will instantly start asking questions about the much more modern V8 that fills the engine bay. Youre looking at a 5.7-liter fuel-injected LS1 V8. This is far more modern than anything from the 60sand#44; and when it was the top motor in cars like the fourth-generation Camaroand#44; it developed well over 300 horsepower. That makes this Chevy II a hot little number. But power is nothing without control. Thats why you have an upgraded front suspension with tubular A-armsand#44; a sway barand#44; and four-wheel disc brakes. But more than just a pure performance machineand#44; this has great anytime driving features such as power steering and a four-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive. Thats why the thoughtful build also has an aluminum radiator with a large electric fan – the car wants to make sure it stays cool no matter if its on a performance run or just sitting in traffic with the A/C running. Heres a turnkey classic that looks this good and is ready for everything you are. An ideal mix like this is usually not this obtainableand#44; so hurry and call today!!! |
