DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION: This one\'s fast with class! It was professionally taken all the way down to a bare shell, mounted on a rotisserie, and rebuilt from the ground up. Under the hood is a 550-horsepower Butler built 400, backed by serious mechanical upgrades from functional Ram Air to 4-wheel disc brakes. Inside it\'s pure luxury with a full custom leather interior, even heated seats! And outside- well, that speaks for itself! This is a turnkey Firebird built for show and go. This Firebird has the looks, the luxury and the muscle! It received a complete rotisserie restoration with extensive custom upgrades throughout. Under the functional Ram Air hood is a Butler Performance-built 400 dyno tested at 550 horsepower. Add the overdrive automatic, 4-wheel disc brakes, upgraded suspension, Vintage Air and a full custom leather interior, and you have a Firebird that was built to show and drive.
EXTERIOR: The body was taken all the way down to a bare shell and mounted on a rotisserie so it could be restored from every angle. The results are phenomenal! The body is laser beam straight, the gaps are square and precise, and I couldn\'t find a dimple or pimple anywhere. It features the functional dual scoop hood, dual sport mirrors, and front and rear spoilers, giving it some Firebird attitude. The bright red paint is polished like glass and absolutely pops. It\'s topped with an upgraded rich tan German cloth convertible top, which gives the car a classy contrast. The chrome and exterior trim have been replaced, along with the weatherstrips and windshield. Finishing off the look are 18-inch Billet Specialties wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich G-Force performance tires.
INTERIOR: This is a full blown custom interior done with class. It\'s upholstered throughout in genuine leather, with custom bolstered seats featuring a beautiful two-tone design and Firebird embroidery. The deluxe door panels were tastefully modified to complement the rest of the interior. Beautiful high gloss burl wood trim is incorporated into the dash, console and door panels, giving the interior a rich, upscale appearance. The color matched dash features a full set of custom gauges, a tilt column with a Billet Specialties steering wheel that matches the wheels. Amenities include heated seats, power windows, Vintage Air climate controls and a touchscreen stereo system with speakers and tweeters inside the car, plus additional equipment in the trunk. Premium carpeting covers the floor and is protected by custom mats. Dynamat insulation and new wiring were installed during the build, and bright interior lighting adds another custom touch. Even the convertible boot was made to match the pattern and upholstery of the seats. This interior was clearly designed as a complete package, not just a collection of upgrades.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Performance built and show detailed! The 400 was completely built, blueprinted and balanced by the Pontiac engine experts at Butler Performance, then dyno tested at an impressive 550 horsepower. It features desirable 6X heads with roller rockers, an aluminum intake and Holley dual-feed carburetor topped with a functional Ram Air induction system. MSD ignition provides the spark. Because of the healthy cam, a vacuum pump and reservoir were added to provide dependable vacuum for the power brakes. The front of the engine is dressed with a polished Front Runner system featuring billet brackets, serpentine pulleys, polished A/C compressor, alternator and power steering. Butler aluminum valve covers add a nice finishing touch. It also features coated headers, a remote power steering cooler, polished overflow bottle and Selecta-Speed wiper upgrade. An aluminum radiator with dual electric fans keeps everything cool. The engine bay itself is beautifully finished in glossy red, making the entire compartment look every bit as impressive as the performance it delivers.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Open the trunk and you\'ll find a completely custom finished compartment that\'s boxed and carpeted. A custom molded fiberglass display is built into the front of the trunk, neatly showcasing two Alpine amplifiers along with stereo system hardware. The subwoofers are integrated into the carpeted side panels, giving the entire installation a clean, finished appearance while still leaving usable trunk space. The underside of the trunk lid is finished with a custom upholstered panel, and working trunk lights come on automatically when the lid is opened.
UNDERSIDE: This car was stripped down and flipped on a rotisserie for a complete restoration. The entire front subframe was stripped and rebuilt with serious upgrades, including Global West tubular control arms, coilover adjustable gas shocks, quick ratio steering box and a custom sway bar. Low profile frame connectors tie the front and rear together for added rigidity. In back are lowering leaf springs with upgraded bushings, adjustable gas shocks and
