Mike's Elky started as a 77 classic, 350
ci, 350 TH and posi-rear end. A previous owner bored it .0030 over
to make 355 ci, added a mild Crane roller cam with cam gears (instead of
timing chain), headers, an Edelbrock intake and a shift kit in the Tranny.
Mike's owned it the last four years and
added a matching Edelbrock carb, electric fuel pump, air shocks, new gas
tank, gauges, new HEI ignition, high output alternator, lots of chrome
on the motor, etc. He sent it to the body shop for shaving and new
paint. The rust behind the rocker molding was so bad we had to
replace the drivers door and front left fender. He also replaced the bed
floor and removed all trim, kept the door handles. Email

This is Jay’s numbers matching true '73 SS purchased June '04. She will be called "Premonition II". I purchased this from the second owner who bought this vehicle from the original owner in 1987 when it had 55,732 miles on it. He pulled the body off the frame at that time and did a total body off frame restoration. The frame is painted with Deltron Semi-Gloss Frame paint. Since the total restoration the vehicle has been driven less than 3,000 miles. Everything works.....even the clock. It has been repainted the original color (code 74 Dark Red Poly), and the vinyl top has been replaced. The option list includes: Air Conditioning, Automatic 350TH,PB, PS, AM/FM, Tilt steering wheel, Super Sport Package, SS 350 engine, Factory Air Shocks, Tinted Glass, Vinyl top. The interior is all excellent and original except the carpet....the carpeting is new. It has a Tonneau cover to protect the bed. The ET Mags and tires are like new with 70's on the front and 60's on the rear. Email Jay

This is John's 1975 GMC Sprint. John said that the car's frame was in need of some work so he made the 12 hour road trip down from Canada to pick up the one I had. John plans on dropping the body onto the frame. This is Definitely a one of a kind ride...check out the Cuda scoops on the hood. Email John
