Engine and drivetrain:
Chassis, & engine 3200 miles total.
Balanced 351 cid Ford Windsor V8, bored & stroked to 410 cid, with Edelbrock Victor Jr. manifold and matching aluminum heads with a Holley double-pumper carburetor
Forged pistons, H-beam rods, Crower roller cam and roller rockers, remote-mounted oil filter fitted with SS braided hoses and ANSA fittings. Bottom end is fitted with girdle. MSD 6AL ignition for spark. No expense was spared in the engine’s construction by Probe Industries.
The Holley Carburetor was just recently rebuilt. Starts right up with ease, hot or cold. No smoke, no stumbles, no issues.
-TRANSMISSION
10-1/2” McLeod clutch to a Tremec 5-speed transmission + an 8.8” IRS, with 3.83:1 gear ratio. Trans shifts cleanly and shifts are positive.
-EXHAUST
-Street version– undercar exhaust ceramic-coated headers that exit out the rear through a pair of mufflers with chromed tips. The owner of the car preferred no side pipes to make the car more drivable and easier to live with.
-SUSPENSION
Fully independent, A-arm, coil over suspension in the front and rear. Not the standard straight axle. This suspension rides very smooth unlike the traditional cobra set up. Handling and ride is vastly improved over solid rear axle. All Rubber bushings are in great shape, no degradation.
-BRAKES
The Wilwood 4 piston front and single piston rears bite hard under a heavy foot but are linear and comfortable for a casual drive. The pads are street pads that require no heat up time.
-PAINT and BODY
The paint is as essentially new and just recently detailed. The cars paint is immaculate as it was just painted in January 2014 by Lasky Coachworks of Los Angeles. Laskey’s paints car to Pebble beach standards. This was a near $10k paint job in Lamborghini Titanium silver.

Halibrand-style knockoff wheels with Bridgestone tires with 85% tread left front and rear.
