136042 / 1950 Chevrolet Styleline Deluxe

THIS VEHICLE HAS SOLD! Stretching a tailored profile around a tough stance, this Chevrolet is the beneficiary of an intense, ground-up build that was conducted by Cornelius, North Carolina’s Performance Vehicle Works. Despite the car’s roughly 350 hours of metalwork, it didn’t need much traditional restoration. But the idea was to create a nice resto-mod, and, as these projects tend to do, “nice resto-mod” eventually grew into “magazine-featured”, “national award-winning” custom. Those days of metalwork were actually spent fitting the car’s body around its custom chassis and killer, twin-turbo LS3. Deep reflections are provided by rich black 2-stage, which began with two coats of PPG 9300 Black base, transitioned to three coats of custom mixed PPG 9300 Black and DCU integrated clear, and ended with three coats of DCU integrated clear. And today, this epic sedan is one unique beast that’s poised to show and raring to go! Under the hood, a twin-turbo LS3 twists 600 rear-wheel horsepower into 560 lb./ft. of rear-wheel torque. Behind that small block, a heavy-duty clutch pack, sourced from a fifth-generation Camaro SS, kicks a proven Borg Warner T56 6-speed. That transmission spins a Ford 9-inch pumpkin that’s finished with gears and Moser 31-spline axles. The car’s custom chassis skates a custom suspension, with a Performance Vehicle Works 4-link planting QA-1 coil-overs behind a NASCAR-inspired front-clip that’s finished with smoothed Z06 control arms. Power rack-and-pinion steering complements a full outfit of Corvette Z06 brakes, which milk a 90-degree Kugel Komponents master cylinder. And power meets the pavement through $4,200 worth of Hot Rods by Boyd Pro Bars, which spin 245/45ZR20 Pirelli P Zeros in front of 275/40ZR20 Pirelli P Zeros. Mixing a high-quality build with impressive power, custom upholstery and spectacular aesthetics, this Styleline is the kind of car that draws crowds and wins trophies!
