[isdntekvideo]We have all the documentation records from when it was restored in Houston in the 80’s, and also for the current restoration, done in 2015, and since the restoration has only been driven 1960 miles. The recent restoration was by Smith Paint and Restoration in White, Georgia, who has had several cars featured in Super Chevy magazine, and is currently restoring several cars that will be featured in the Savoy Museum, which will be one of the biggest car museums in the South.
The engine was built by Racing Head Services in Memphis, Tennessee.When the car was restored in 2015, all components including motor and transmission were completely refreshed, and also vintage air, electric fans, and aluminum radiator, a complete v-track chrome system and lots of billet specialty items were added to dress up engine bay to a very high quality show standard. If you notice in the pictures, this car is shown with a 4-2 barrel Delorto downdraft carburetion system. This was later changed out to a Demon 4 barrel, the Delorto system and intake will also go with the car.This car has won many car shows and there’s no other quite like it! It's a real blast to drive! Makes about 400 horsepower! Folks, the rolling chassis for one of these cars sells for my asking price, if you know these cars!
