Oh Yes, it has a Hemi, tons of grins with this great
Hot Rod roadster. If you are
looking for a cookie cutter roadster, this car may not
for you but on the other hand if you like traditional
Old School style combined with true Old School
horsepower, you better pack a lunch and enjoy the ride. This Deuce
is sure to satisfy the adrenaline junkie in just about
anyone...
Resting between those well engineered Deuce rails
resides a legendary vintage Hemi that's strong enough to
take you back to high school while just tame enough to
please the authorities. Yes, its a 1958 392 Chrysler
Hemi built just like it was back then, (only tighter &
better). It all starts with a 5/8 stroker that's bored
30 over creating 461 cubic inches of potential madness
:-)...
Components include Carrillo Piston Rods, Engle Roller
Cam, freshly ported/polished heads, real Vertex magneto
Ignition, polished vintage Crager 4x2 Intake Manifold
fitted with 4 new Stromberg 97's, teapot air filters,
polished aluminum Chevy H20 pump, polished belt pulleys,
chrome 1 wire GM alternator, polished aluminum timing
cover, chrome Chrysler "Fire Power" valve covers, heat
coated Sanderson headers, dual Dynamax mufflers & custom
exhaust and more. Transferring the power is a stout 727
Torque-Flite automatic transmission straight into a Ford
8" (350 ratio). Now, get a grip on yourself..
Keeping this lightweight unit on it's rails is a
traditional 4-Bar rear suspension w/billet Coil-Over
shocks, chrome Super Bell front axle, chrome buggy
spring, chrome tube shocks & spindles, So-Cal front disc
"Functional Fakes", braided stainless lines and more.
All of this rolling in red powder coated Vintique Spoke
Wheels, beauty rings, V8 center caps and fat BF Goodrich
radial rubber. Not done...
Grabbing your attention is a very slick & equally deep
Black finish over a solid high quality Harwood body with
a 2 inch compartment stretch, louvered Henry hood,
blacked out grill shell, subtle old school pinstriping
and 2" chopped windscreen. Hop In, fitted with
supple high quality bone leather seating/door & side
panels, tear drop door knobs, chrome 40 Ford steering
column, 40 wheel & column shifter, classic Moon Eyes
instrumentation and only 2 pedals :-) Mash the gas, I
dare ya... |
