This beautiful Chevy deluxe has had a body off frame restoration with a long list of upgrades.

EXTERIOR: This deluxe 5 window is beautiful! It has subtle yet significant body mods that gives it a clean look. They removed and filled the moldings, door handles, emblems, and gas cap. The seam down the middle of the hood has been filled and smoothed. The headlights are frenched, and it has a frenched power antenna. In back the bumper has been removed and there is a custom roll pan with recessed taillights and license plate. It also has a flush mount third brake light. The doors open by remote. It even has a power operated cowl vent! Excellent body work, it's straight with no rust or damage showing. It is all metal including the fenders and running boards. It has some custom mirrors. Painted a beautiful metallic silver, the metal flake is laid out evenly and the clear coat is polished smooth and glossy. Up front the chrome grill and bumper sparkles. The vent windows were removed, and the doors have one piece glass. It has new smoked glass all around. the vent window was removed for one piece door windows. It has a nice stance sitting on some chrome 15 inch Torque Thrust wheels and Hankook tires, a little bit fatter in the back.

INTERIOR: It ain't no farm truck inside! Very comfortable leather bucket seats, both are 6-way power. The entire inside of the cab is custom upholstered including the headliner and door panels. It has a center console with storage and greatly appreciated cup holders. It is also home to the power door releases and power window switches. In front of you is a beautiful dash with a set of custom gauges and a billet steering wheel on a tilt column. There's also a retro stereo in the dash with aux plugs and speakers behind the seats. They added retractable 3-point seat belts too.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It's a beautiful clutter free engine compartment. The engine bay is all smooth metal painted the same shiny metallic silver as the exterior. At the heart of it is an LT1 fuel injected 350 motor making 330 horsepower. It's been upgraded with a set of headers and a cold air intake. It's dressed nicely with aluminum valve covers and intake cover. The front of the motor has modern components: alternator, power steering, a/c compressor and a serpentine belt system. It runs cool with a Howe aluminum radiator and overflow bottle with an electric fan.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Inside the box is done up real nice. It has a Chevy bow tie embossed in the front panel. Down on the floor is refinished wood planks, painted steel strips and stainless hardware. The fuel filler is flush mounted in the floor. There's custom hardware on the tailgate

UNDERSIDE: The body was off the frame, everything was restored or replaced. It's still very fresh looking. The front end was completely replaced with a Heidts independent suspension which includes tubular upper control arms, coilover shocks, drop spindles, rack and pinion steering. In back the suspension has been completely rebuilt with new bushings, shocks, upgraded swaybar and air ride. There is an on-board compressor, and you control the ride from inside. It has a custom relocated stainless fuel tank. Neatly installed dual exhaust system with glass pack style mufflers. The brake system was completely upgraded. There's a power booster under the truck, discs at all four wheels and a custom e-brake. There are also remote battery terminals. Looking up at the motor it is clean, it has a high torque starter. The transmission is a 700R-4 overdrive automatic. A custom drive shaft goes back to a 10 bolt rear end.

SERVICE: We inspected the car and serviced the air conditioning by replacing a hose and recharging the freon. We replaced the steering wheel, serviced the driver's window and installed a return spring on the brake pedal.

It would cost $100,000 to duplicate this truck at a professional shop. Not only is it a looker but you're going to love driving it!
