BODYWORK/TRIM

Thanks to a $160K rotisserie reboot that was completed by Raleigh North Carolinas B-Macs Auto Restoration this Chevelle realized its owners ultimate goal of wrapping timeless Chevrolet style around 21st century comfort and brutal performance. Naturally that owner a retired advanced aircraft design engineer conducted a great deal of research and planning to perfect the details and workmanship of what became an amazing no-expense-spared classic. The foundation for that flash is a laser-straight body that was stripped bare wet-sanded between sprays and wet-sanded for well over 100 hours after the paint process was complete. Speaking of sprays this Chevy wears exactly 14 applications of PPG Vibrance 2-stage which manifests as four coats of Gold Leaf four coats of O-So-Sexy Red double-layered Titanium Silver Super Sport stripes and four coats of clear. Depending on the sun that pigment tends to alternate between an explosion of dark red and a phenomenon of golden hot red. And today roughly 1000 miles out of the restoration shop the car has claimed quite a few Best of Show awards throughout the Carolinas.

Many enthusiasts view early 70s Chevelles as the pinnacle of both muscle car and classic Chevy design. At the front of this coupe a polished bumper frames a familiar Super Sport grille which rides between modern Hella headlights. Above that bumper a pinned cowl induction hood anchors smoked glass between polished trim polished drip rails and polished mirrors. Below those mirrors factory door handles clean marker lamps and custom SS572 emblems leave the cars monochromatic profile free of any frivolous distractions. And at the back of that profile a second polished bumper hangs silver-trimmed taillights between polished exhaust tips and a stylish Chevelle trunk script.

At the top of that monster mill an 850cfm Holley double pumper mixes wind supplied by a billet air cleaner with fuel thats piped through a coated Edelbrock pump a coated regulator a small Auto Gage pressure gauge and braided stainless lines. That air/fuel mixture floods a tall GM single-plane intake on the way to aluminum rectangular-port cylinder heads which hang polished and color-keyed valve covers between stainless valves roller rocker arms a polished Chevrolet cap and a polished Chevrolet breather. At the back of that intake an MSD Pro-Billet distributor sequences spark between MSD electronic ignition and quality MSD plug wires. Those wires fire a forged
