| Car history: |
EXTERIOR The new two-stage paint has been color sanded & buffed to a mirror-like finish revealing brilliant definition over straight lines that don’t appear to have ever been in any kind of wreck, probably because of a female ownership history. When one reaches a hand underneath the body, all of bonding strips are present. To prevent overspray, all of the lights and trim were removed for paint. When reinstalling trim, all new emblems were affixed including front and rear flags, as well new “Stingray” badging. All of the reproduction weather-stripping is new. All of the chrome is re- plated. We even installed a new front plastic air dam & the front grille plastic with new lights & lenses. Two or all four of the marker lights are new. An electrician has been all over the car to ensure all lights & signals are functional. This shark has been painted two times to get the finish as close to flawless as possible. The brand new BF Goodrich Radial TA tires look great on the original style factory issued rally wheels: finishing the Stingray’s look handsomely. The spare tire carrier was removed from the car for the painting process and refinished itself. The exhaust is completely new and has been replaced with aluminized metal to prevent corrosion and promote cleanliness; we installed chrome tips that are extended sufficiently as not to discolor the new bumper chrome. You’ll even notice the original “Astro-Ventilation” door glass as well the beautifully functional removable rear window with hidden tray above and behind the seats.
INTERIOR The interior has received re-foamed & recovered seats; door panels, dash, as well recovered trim and newly installed carpet. The gauges still look great and remain functional, including the mechanically driven tachometer. The original stereo was restored and sounds as good as it ever did with brand new speakers & tuning knobs. The horn button, door handle emblems, vent knobs, door sill plates, console data plate and chrome plated interior rear view mirror are all new. The Hurst shifter features a reproduction positive lockout reverse handle installed to recreate the factory original look and feel! The rear compartment doors have all been replaced as necessary but they are a sticky plastic design from the ‘60’s. The original seatbelts are completely functional: we had the tongues re-plated with the bumpers and installed brand new webbing.
MECHANICAL After three years, there hasn’t been any part of the car that we haven’t touched. The restored motor compartment looks gorgeous with reproduction air cleaner and original aluminum Harrison overflow tank polished by hand to match those brilliantly finned factory aluminum valve covers. WIth the original double hump heads, this rebuilt optioned 350 / 350 horsepower numbers matching motor runs great remaining mated to the rebuilt original four-speed transmission. All of the motors accessories were rebuilt or replaced including the alternator; water pump; harmonic balancer; all power steering components (all four hoses, ram, control valve and pump); brand new reproduction radiator together with new belts and hoses. The entire braking system has been serviced with four rebuilt calipers; new brake lines; all new e-brake hardware and shoes; as well rebuilt master cylinder. All the sway bar link bushings, a-arm bushings, ball joints and rear strut rod bushings are new. When the suspension was disassembled we cleaned then painted all the pieces before reassembly and detailed the chassis similarly. The rear wheel bearings are a captive design so we replaced them for good measure and replaced the u-joints as necessary. The heater core was replaced with new unit, because if new radiator was required, it needed the core too. The car’s stance came out very nicely. The rear end was removed and rebuilt when the motor and trans were rebuilt. Thanks!
