horsepower 496ci Stroker V8 crate engine fitted with Patriot Performance 320cc aluminum heads.

The chrome was all redone and is perfectly complemented by a gorgeous set of 17 American Racing Torq Thrust II chrome rims.
This car is done right top to bottom and in need of nothing but a new home.
Close to six figures went into the build of this beauty which was never built with the intention selling.
Times have changed and it is being made available at a price that is half of what it cost to build.
