Completely rebuilt drivetrain with a 283ci high-performance engine, 00R4 automatic overdrive transmission and 12-bolt posi. Perfect muscle car that’s light-weight, as plenty of power and overdrive for fuel economy! This car was babied by the present owner who has had it for 16 years. It was only driven in nice weather, o snow, alt or even rain and has been stored in a heated garage. This car is just in superb condition inside outside and underneath. Car has no issues! Runs and drives better than when it was new! Very reliable. Has been on long freeway drives with no issues. Fly in and drive this one home!
The Body is ALL GM Steel it was born with no patch panel or panel replacements! The car was given a frame off restoration in ’99. The body was acid dipped, ings and dents removed, rimed, locked, ainted PPG 1970 Corvette Torch Red then clear-coated and buffed.

The original 2-core radiator was replaced with a 4-core radiator but the owner did keep the electric fan as a back up.
The original 350 transmission was replaced with a 700R4. The transmission was completely rebuilt in 2003 (have receipts) with a shift kit, 300 stall converter, xtra-capacity aluminum pan and tranny cooler.
