A unique classic that has been given all the right custom touches is exactly what you get with this 1954 Chevrolet 210. But what you might not expect are all the great upgrades from the A/C interior to the show-ready enhanced V8 under the hood.From the moment you lay eyes on this one you can tell it's an interesting custom build. But before we dive into the investments that make it quite original, let's remember why this is such a great classic to begin with. Detroit was happy to awaken after WWII with plenty of stylized cars. This meant providing new ideas with interesting curvaceous bodies. And of course, there was chrome, too. On this 210 model brightwork surrounds every piece of glass, runs the full length of the side, outlines the lower rear fender, covers both bumpers, surrounds every exterior light, and gives the car a shiny toothy grille. All of this makes the car so distinctive today, and the mirror-like level of shine means someone invested heavily in its appearance. And speaking of money spent wisely, the two-tone Sea Mist Green and Pearl White are period-correct hues, but they take advantage of enough modern clearcoat to rival the chrome for luster. And that's exactly how to view this classic the perfect blend of vintage and new worlds. That's why you have elements like whitewall tires and factory-style wheel covers joined by shaved trim and LED taillights.Inside it also seamlessly blends the vintage and new worlds together. Bucket seats, center console, and cup holders are not what anyone at Chevy had planned in '54. But today they are tastefully integrated as the custom interior matches the two-tone on the seats with the side panels and headliner. Power seats, modern AM/FM/CD stereo with iPod hookup, and ice-cold R134a air conditioning means this is the perfect cruising machine to take your family and friends along for the ride. But even when it's just you, features like the three-spoke wood rimmed steering wheel and classic style TPI/AutoMeter gauges will keep you happily motoring along. You'll love showing off the engine bay. With flames painted on the valve covers, and the mirror-like ones on the air grabber, this looks like one hot motor. And backing up its appearance is a 283 cubic-inch small block that inhales deeply through a Holley four-barrel carburetor and exhales with authority out of the dual exhaust. You're going to love taking this classic out on the road thanks to enhancements like the Mustang II-style independent front suspension that features tubular A-arms and a thick sway bar. Plus, there's a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes. If this looks like a great anywhere/anytime cruiser, you'd be right. There's even of electric fans so your vintage Chevy stays cool even when you're in traffic with the A/C running.This is a total package classic that's turnkey ready for the car show or a weekend trip at a moment's notice.
