1963 Chevy Belair / LS1 swap
1963 Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 Description
Selling my 63 Chevy Belair 2 dr. sedan. Car has great patina and some areas of heavy rust.Car was originally an inline 6 powerglide car. It now has a 2001 5.7 liter LS1 and 4L60E trans.Motor has approximately 65k miles and trans was rebuilt by a reputable local shop less than 500 miles ago. Trans was strengthened and a shift kit installed for over $1800. Cpp provided the tubular trans cross member and a local drive line shop built a new two piece drive line. Aluminum radiator notched for the cpp steering box was also added. A 14 inch big disc brake kit from cpp was added to the front as well as their quick ratio steering box. The a arms were rebuilt with new bushings and ball joints and a new center link was added. An air bag kit from airmaxxx was added to all for corners and the manual valves were replaced with an accuair manifold.System utilizes 3/8 lines and 8 way controller. New Boss 338's were added 18x8 and 20x10's with new tires. The body is very straight and has all original paint and patina. :) The floors were replaced by the previous owner. The passenger fender has a small area which is soft on the lower corner behind the wheel opening. The rear quarter has a small area which is soft right on the wheel opening. The rain gutter of the trunk is heavily rusted and rotted. I have a rain gutter removed from a donor car trunk that has not been installed yet and will be included in the sale.The rest of the body is pretty solid. The underside of the trunk lid is also heavily rusted. I have the original inner fenders but hey will not let the car be fully lowered so inner fenders should be built. Dual exhaust was built hugging the car so it can be completely aired out without damage to the exhaust. A new fuel tank was installed with an internal Walbro fuel pump. A new windshield was installed, the rear window was reinstalled with new rubber. The rear window still leaks as glass guy sucked. I finally found a backseat . The front and rear seats don't match. I've had new door panels made which haven't been installed yet. It has a new carpet kit installed over fat mat heat and noise shield. Firewall was smoothed so heater was removed. Currently no radio in the car either. I'm sure I missed items but car is described as best as possible. I have nearly $18k in receipts and I know I've lost or misplaced some. Feel free to ask questions and if you need more pics I can text them to you. I reserve the right to end the auction early. Reserve is less than I have into the car so please don't ask. Please no negative dribble. It's a fun car I just want something different.
