The comprehensive Total performance package included extensive body and chassis/suspension components. The fiberglass body was carefully finished in PPG Wineberry over Silver with accent pin stripping. It is equipped with a 2-piece windshield and custom removable soft top. Period-correct chrome Model T cowl lamp assemblies are also perfect accents and polished Weld alloy wheels (15x3.5f/15r) mount Mickey Thompson 'Sportsman' series radials. The interior is pure hot rod with stunning pleated black vinyl upholstery. Every detail is top-shelf and the dash contains a full set of analogue gauges. This roadster is also radio and heater delete. Again, based on information provided by the seller, horsepower is furnished by a 383ci Chevy stroker that was built by CHS Machine, Inc. The engine is fully chrome dressed and fitted with Mallory ignition, Edelbrock Torker-Plus cam, aluminum 'Offenhauser-style' Tunnel Ram Dual Quad intake and (2) Holley single-feed carburetors. Exhaust is routed through chrome tube-headers to free-flowing side pipes. Behind this strong 'Mouse' sits a GM Turbo400 3-speed automatic built by Gearstar Transmission and a chromed 8” Ford differential fitted with 3.36:1 gearing. The custom Total Performance chassis uses handsome chrome components everywhere. The front suspension consists of a dropped axle and transverse leaf spring w/modified radius rods. The rear axle setup utilizes multi-link Watts Linkage, radius rods and coil-over shocks. This package rides nicely and handles well. The chassis is fitted with manual steering and Wilwood front disc/drum brakes w/parking brake.
