Ground-Up Built Chevelle Conv. Restomod 6.2L LS3/495hp V8 6-spd Manual A/C

Here at RK Motors Charlotte we sell A LOT of investment grade Chevelles. However, as much as we enjoy historic pieces, we're also red-blooded car enthusiasts who love selling cars that can actually be driven and enjoyed as they were originally intended. And with awesome Black aesthetics and 6.2 liters of hot Chevrolet Performance LS3, this slick Chevelle drop-top will turn driving your muscle car from a hobby into an obsession! Looking for some sweet Detroit metal that wraps exceptional drivability in one of the best looking packages to ever roll down American streets? Here's your next classic!

PROFESSIONAL RESTORATION

Buff, bad and ready to roll, this pristine Chevelle is the beneficiary of a body-off rotisserie restoration. That nut-and-bolt reboot, conducted by the pros at Sugarloaf, Pennsylvania's Tony's Muscle Cars, dressed solid sheetmetal in a rich coat of Tuxedo Black 2-stage. And today, this handsome Chevy walks a fine line between tastefully modern and traditionally conservative. At the front of the car's sinister profile, a Chevelle-branded grille centers a prominent “SS” emblem between stainless-trimmed headlights and a broad bumper that's finished with clear parking lamps. At the top of that grille, a familiar Cowl Induction Hood flows to factory-tint glass that's framed in straight stainless and capped in tight canvas. At the sides of the car, bright wheel frames add a little pizzazz while traditional door handles perfectly complement a duo of factory mirrors. And out back, a second broad bumper stretches a clean SS inlay between polished exhaust tips and conservative taillights.

LS NATION

If you think the exterior of this Chevelle is impressive, you're going to LOVE what's under its hood! Officially known as the Chevrolet Performance LS376/480, the car's spry engine twists respectable 10.7 to 1 compression into 495 horsepower and 473 lb./ft. of torque. At the top of the block, a remote Spectre filter element feeds a polished air tube, which funnels wind into a proven GM throttle body that fronts a lightweight GM intake. That air meets spark in rectangular-port L92-style heads, which ride under a vivid plenum cover and Chevelle-branded coil covers. A nodular crank, powdered connecting rods and hypereutectic pistons compress that volatile union. A racing-inspired LS Hot Cam maximizes intake efficiency through better breathing. Speaking of breathing, that smooth valvetrain funnels spent gases through muted GM manifolds. There's a massive Be Cool radiator that's slid between a body-matched cowl and flashy chrome puller fans. Vintage Air Front Runner serpentine components spin Detroit Speed power steering beneath a polished alternator and a polished AC compressor. And the all-aluminum mill rolls in a smooth, Tuxedo Black frame that's finished with niceties like a Holley oil pan, a body-matched battery box, billet Eddie Motorsports hood supports and polished brake components that were sourced from The Right Stuff Detailing.

LOOKS GREATS, DRIVES GREAT

Take a gander under this cool A-Body and you'll find a fully detailed chassis that mixes new age technology with old school durability. A Metallic Silver frame, sandblasted bare during the detailed restoration, reflects thoroughly solid floorpans that, likewise sandblasted, have been dressed in a clean layer of Tuxedo Black. At the center of those floors, a McLeod hydraulic clutch kicks a Tremec T56 Magnum 6-speed, which spins a tough 12-bolt axle that hides 4.10 gears and a posi-traction differential behind a TA Performance inspection cover. Stopping is a cinch thanks to drilled and slotted rotors, which get grabbed by Wilwood 4 and 6-piston calipers. Lucid power steering complements a modernized suspension that's finished with an upsized front sway bar, a factory rear sway bar, tubular front control arms and adjustable rear control arms. Exhaust is handled by a series of aluminized pipes, which swirl spent gases through an H-shaped crossover to either electronic cutouts or throaty turbo mufflers. And at the corners, Nitto Invo redlines, sized 245/40R18 and 275/40R20, twist chromed Ridler 645s.

CLASSIC WITH A TOUCH OF MODERN

Check the car's clean interior and you'll find a familiar muscle car aesthetic that's had modern convenience integrated where it counts. The front seats are heavily bolstered units that were sourced directly from TMI, and the rear seat has been covered and stitched to match. Front and center, a monochromatic dash founds Dakota Digital VHX telemetry above modern, direct-fit audio and components for Vintage Air conditioning. At the sides of that dash, integrated Pioneer kick speakers lead custom side panels. The driver enjoys the car's power through a long Hurst shifter and a billet steering wheel. And the passenger's stow essentials in a custom-upholstered trunk.

If you're in the market for a choice boulevard bruiser that's a blast to show off and even MORE fun to drive, your search is officially over! This professionally restored Chevelle mixes classic Chevrolet looks with a ton of power and some of the best drivetrain components on the market.
