Vin: 135177B207073
One of the coolest Restomods in our inventory, this 1967 Chevelle is the product of an extensive no expense spared build. The previous owner bought this car from 8x Drag Racing Champ, and world renowned engine builder Pat Musi as a rolling chassis. Yes, Pat Musi used to own this car and we have the receipt to prove it (included in the sale)!
While purchasing the car, the builder also purchased one of Pat Musi's Crate Engines to use in the build of this beautiful Chevelle. That engine of choice is a Pat Musi / Edelbrock Pump Gas GM 555ci V8 Crate Engine producing 675hp! Power is put to the ground through a built TH400 Automatic Transmission, Gear Vendor Overdrive System, Strange Chromoly Driveshaft, and Strange Ford 9" Rear End w/ Moser Axles. Stopping power is provided by 4-Wheel Wilwood Power Disc Brakes, with beefy 6-Piston Calipers up front and 4-Piston out back. If this isnt enough for you, this Chevelle has been equipped with both Front and Rear Detroit Speed Suspension. Taking this car out on a hot summer day will be no problem with the full functioning Vintage air conditioning system that blows ice cold!
