A period correct and rare 425A, 389 cubic inch, V8 beneath the hood takes center stage in an engine compartment that's as clean as any you'll likely encounter, bracketed by semi-gloss black inner fenders that contrast perfectly with its light blue block, heads and valve covers. The big block is fed by a tri-power configuration: GM's signature distinctive and coveted carburetion system of the era that positions a trio of 2-barrel carbs in a row under compact air cleaners to provide maximum CFM capacity. A 4-speed manual transmission sits just behind the engine to provide a fitting "hands on" driving experience and it's navigated by an upgraded hydraulic clutch that offers an unusually smooth pedal action. HEI ignition brings maximum available spark, while an added aluminum radiator helps keep operating temperatures in line.
