This 1955 Chevrolet two-door hardtop have been the subject of a three-year refurbishment and custom build. Finished in red over red leather upholstery, the car is powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter LSX376-B15 V8 mated to a GM 4L75-E four-speed automatic overdrive transmission. Additional equipment includes a 9″ Ford rear end with a 3.70:1 gear ratio, a 3″ stainless-steel exhaust system with MagnaFlow mufflers, an aluminum radiator, staggered-diameter Ridler wheels, four-wheel Wilwood disc brakes with an electronically-actuated master cylinder, a Vintage Air climate control system, Dakota Digital instrumentation, power windows and steering, and a hidden Bluetooth-capable stereo as well as chassis sourced from Fat Man Fabrications featuring front and rear adjustable coilovers, a four-link rear suspension setup, and polished suspension components.
The trunk features custom-fabricated trunk panels upholstered in red leather with a hidden battery compartment housing an AGM battery and an integrated CTEK battery charger.
The firewall was smoothed and modified, while the inner fenders and underside of the hood were painted to match the body.
An aluminum radiator and intercooler is mounted in front of a 6.2-liter LSX376-B15 V8 crate engine topped with a Whipple 2.9-liter supercharger that was installed.
The engine is fitted with a Lingenfelter GT12 camshaft as well as a forged crankshaft, rods, pistons, and aluminum GM Performance 6-bolt supercharger-compatible cylinder heads.
An oil and filter change was most recently performed in 2023 using Driven DT50 Racing Oil.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a GM 4L75-E four-speed automatic transmission with a SuperMatic controller as well as a red-finished 9″ Ford rear axle with a 3.70:1 gear ratio.
A stainless-steel fuel tank with dual fuel pumps is installed, and stainless headers feed into a 3″ stainless exhaust system with dual MagnaFlow mufflers.
The transmission, fuel tank, fuel pumps, and exhaust system were installed.
The body have been refinished in red, the side mirrors were removed during the build, and further exterior details include tinted glass, shaved badging, chrome moldings and trim, smoothed chrome bumpers, and dual exhaust outlets.
Chrome 18″ and 20″ five-spoke Ridler wheels are mounted with 235/40 Nitto NT555 Extreme tires up front and 275/40 Nitto NT555 Rii tires that were installed out back.

Braking is provided Wilwood disc brakes utilizing an electronically-actuated master cylinder from ABS Power Brakes.
The power-operated front bucket seats are upholstered in red leather that extends to the custom-fabricated rear seats and the coordinated door panels.
Red carpeting lines the floors, while a full-length center console houses audio and power-window controls, a shift lever, and a pair of chrome cup holders.
Additional interior amenities include a climate control system by Vintage Air, a Lokar shifter, a digital clock, dual console-mounted LED courtesy lights, lap belt, and color-coordinated floor mats as well as a hidden stereo with Bluetooth connectivity.
A three-spoke Corvette-style steering wheel is mounted to a tilting column and fronts a Dakota Digital instrument cluster including a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, a voltmeter, and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level.
The six-digit odometer indicates 1,300 miles, true mileage is unknown.
