Beautiful ride , sidelined and updated modern way but digital gauges are no no

 

That paint, those wheels, gauges, steering wheel. I could just cry. It's still a beautifull car bbarcher.

I'm surprised that the 700R4 can survive the 454 BB. I had the same set up in an XJS and it ate up 2 700R4s. Finally had to put in a TH400.

Judging by your area code, we are neighbors. I'd love to see it but it doesn't sound like you suffer tire kickers so well. Best of luck on your sale.

 

It even comes with a body in the trunk!

 

That car is done impeccably well for what it is.

The wheels really aren't to my taste but hey, that's simple and a matter of personal opinion. I'm wondering if some sort of dash underpanel could hide the wiring - and are those Pontiac seats? (The look ok but just wondering).

I have to say that, (as an Englishman), it is "not my cup of tea", but the modifications seem to have been done very well, and lets face it, have probably kept this car away from the scrap man, so.....

Well done !!

(don't like those digital gauges, tho)

 

Veeeeery interesting. But those wheels cry out to be replaced with a set of 16" D-Type replicas.

 

I think whoever built it dipped generously into the GM parts bin (like Jaguar did!). The wheels look like Cadillac:

Definitely could do better.

I agree the seats look like Pontiac. Pics of a 92 Bonneville:


Probably Dakota Digital gauges, which are good, but not the best aesthetic here.

I just found the car on Craigslist and posted it for our interest. Not affiliated with the owner.
