EXTERIOR
The straight fiberglass body is finished in smooth, glossy red paint. Custom-contoured running boards, suicide doors, full fenders, and a metal three-piece hood that opens from either side define the body. Traditional-style door handles and large Ford-script headlights preserve a vintage appearance, while integrated front turn signals, mirrors with built-in turn signals, teardrop LED taillights, and a third brake light add modern lighting. Polished Billet Specialties wheels are fitted with BFGoodrich tires, with substantially wider rear tires.
INTERIOR
The fully upholstered tan cabin includes sculpted custom door panels, a custom headliner, and upholstery beneath the dashboard and behind the seat. A Wise Guys power seat is paired with Mercedes-style square-loop carpeting and matching mats. Leather boots surround the chrome parking-brake handle and Hurst five-speed shifter. Classic Instruments gauges include a tachometer, and a deluxe steering wheel is mounted to a tilt column. The stereo is installed overhead, with speakers integrated into the rear panel. Three-point retractable seatbelts are fitted.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT
The Ford 351W crate engine is rated at 365 horsepower and uses Roush cylinder heads, an aluminum intake, dual-feed Holley Street Avenger 670 carburetor, Mallory Unilite ignition, and coated headers. Custom-painted valve covers and air cleaner dress the engine. A polished alternator and polished air-conditioning compressor are installed, and the engine bay is finished in smooth red paint.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT
A switch inside the cabin operates the power trunk lift. The boxed trunk is fully upholstered and uses the same premium carpeting as the interior. The battery is concealed behind a panel.
CHASSIS AND UNDERSIDE
The boxed, powder-coated chassis uses tubular supports. A TCI independent front suspension includes tubular control arms, sway bar, adjustable coilovers, and rack-and-pinion steering. The rear uses a four-link system with adjustable coilovers. Disc brakes are fitted at all four wheels with a functioning parking brake. The black ceramic-coated exhaust system uses Flowmaster mufflers, dumps, and polished flared tips at the rear. A Tanks Inc. composite fuel tank feeds braided stainless-steel lines through an inline chrome filter. The engine is fitted with a high-torque starter. A heavy-duty scatter shield covers the Centerforce hydraulic clutch, and the Richmond five-speed manual sends power to a rebuilt, powder-coated Ford nine-inch locking rear axle.
