Award-worthy paint, full custom interior, four-wheel disc brakes, and a huge dual-quad V8 - this 1962 Chevrolet Biscayne coupe is a stunning one-of-a-kind restomod that's so unique and powerful that it cannot escape the spotlight. You already know why this coupe is such a cool ride. It's from the sought-after couple of years where the hardtop could be had with the highly stylized bubble top design. That skinny c-pillar and wraparound rear window is truly spectacular. And it... only gets better on a meticulously rebuilt classic with the kind of attention to precision gaps that surpass even what the factory could have made. Plus, the Root Beer Brown Metallic paint has the kind of deep luster and shine that evenly rolls off every surface of this classic Chevy. But more than just paint, this coupe makes a striking impression with its brightwork. There are mirror-like bumpers front and rear. And in-between is the sweeping side trim that runs its unbroken line to further highlight how straight the bodywork is. And while all this classic brightwork is amazing, you'll also love the large Billet Specialties alloys that hint at just how advanced this vintage hardtop really is. Open the door to a full custom interior. It starts with two rows of individual bucket seats with comfortable cup holder center consoles in-between them. When you sit down and close the door, the custom feeling consumes you. The custom door panels and plush carpeting match the seats. Even vintage elements like the dash and dual-spoke steering wheel coordinate nicely. It's such uniform total package that it's easy to see this interior can win awards at the car shows just by its appearance alone. But more than just stylish, you'll enjoy serious substance with this custom build. You get a full gauge package thanks to the modern blue glow of Dakota Digital readouts. There's also a modern AM/FM/CD stereo with iPod hookup and Bluetooth nicely concealed in the glovebox. Also, we know you're going to love showing off the pillarless hardtop profile. That's why this custom coupe has ice-cold R134a air conditioning, so you can feel comfortable running with the windows down all year long. More than just the bubble top roof, the 409 motor made these a legend. But that classic-style V8 has been given a performance twist in this full custom build - and you know that from the moment you see this modern and tidy engine bay. First, the 409 was enlarged to 481 cubic-inches total. It was given performance upgrades like dual Edelbrock four-barrel carburetors, Edelbrock RPM ported aluminum heads, Edelbrock intake, and Hooker headers. This monster motor also has the right supporting components, like a Billet Specialties serpentine belt system, Powermaster alternator, and fined valve covers. Plus, the large aluminum radiator with electric fan keeps it all running cool even if you're in traffic with the A/C pumping. The big block makes a terrific rumble from the dual exhaust, and the Muncie four-speed manual transmission means you're in complete control of the power and thunder. And just like the engine bay, the rest of the drivetrain was upgrades to be a terrific driver. With less than 1,500 miles on the whole build everything looks fresh. Plus, there's great features like four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, a limited-slip rear end, and the modern grip of BF Goodrich gForce Comp2 performance tires. Award-worthy and one-of-a-kind builds like this rarely leave their creator's hands. So don't miss a fleeting opportunity at an icon with the best of everything. Call today!!!
