Default 1969 Chevelle with ZO6 LS6 4 speed

I’m selling my 1969 Chevelle Resto-Mod weekend driver with a 2003 Z06 LS-6 with 46k on motor. This car is a frame-on restoration where everything has been gone through.
:
Has a stock LS-6 Block with stock 243 heads, new ceramic Hooker headers, FAST intake, ported throttle body by Speedtek, Lokar throttle cable, Larger LS injectors, New alternator, new power steering pump/pulley, new starter, new ignition, MSD spark plug wires, new plugs, new serpentine belt, New sumped oil pan for conversion, New chromolly flywheel, new heavy duty clutch/pressure plate kit, new 3 core radiator with custom dual electric fans, new heater core, Brand new custom wiring harness tuned and built by SpeedSceneWiring in San Antonio, New ECU, K&N air filter and intake, Optima battery in trunk. Steel braided fuel line ran from fuel rail to new RockValley stainless steel fuel tank with in-tank walbro 255 fuel pump, and new fuel regulator. Installed polyurethane motor mounts and tranny mount. Has completely rebuilt (new internals, syncros, etc.) Muncie 4 speed M21 Close-Ratio tranny with Hurst shifter and handle. Drive shaft has been balanced and has new heavy duty u-joints. Rear-end is a 12-bolt with all new internals, new Eaton posi-unit, with GM quiet gears 3:31, new axles and bearing kit. Has factory front disc brakes (new rotors, calipers, pads, hoses) with drums in the rear also has new master cylinder as well. Running full exhaust 2.5in. through nice Flowmasters with chrome SS exhaust tips. I have ran only Mobile1 Synthetic through this motor and has been well taken care of.

The interior has been nicely re-upholstered, has new 3 spoke style vette steering wheel, new headliner, package tray, door panels, sunvisors, cranks, armrests, levers, etc… and attention to detail in the interior, new Autometer sport-com tach with matching oil/temp gauges, new dash and dash pad, new carpet, steering column was rebuilt, Rockford Fosgate sound deadener laid out through whole interior, interior is very nice.

This car has no rust and has been re-sprayed charcoal grey with the 69 SS stripe black under the clear (not a decal or sticker). I would rate the paint 8 out of 10. All new emblems all chrome trim is in great shape with no fading or pitting. New front windshield and all glass looks real good, new weatherstripping around the whole car, new inner fender wells, new grill, new locks, handles, new triple coated chrome bumpers. Has new Hotchkis lowering springs all around giving it a lower stance and new HD shocks. Has 18inch 5 spoke Gunmetal gray Coys all around with Brand new Hankook tires 235 up front with 255s in the rear.

This car is very nice, reliable, and a very nice driver. Just drove to Austin for Hot Rod & Kustom Car show… probably averaged 18mpg… With the fuel injected motor you don’t have to worry about cold starts etc… This is not a show car, but a damn nice driver. I enjoyed building this car and have thousands of dollars in receipts in parts.

Asking $36,500 817-437-7833

Nice swap.. to bad you didn't go with a OD tranny.. would have pumped up the 18mpg to the mid 20's easily...

Very nice indeed.

Wouldn't let the 4 speed stop me from buying it. A GM TKO should be close to a bolt in.

Thanks for all the great comments! Putting in a front 1 3/8 in. Hotchkis sway bar and a 1in rear sway bar in this weekend... Hopefully that will help it handle a bit better!
