Details

This custom 1957 Chevrolet Cameo pickup is finished in Metallic Burgundy with silver over a gray leather interior. It is powered by a 454ci V8 engine paired with a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission. Power flows to a mono leaf spring-supported 1981 Camaro Z/28 10-bolt rear end with 4.10 ratio gears and limited-slip. The forward-tilting hood shows the 454 big-block engine has chrome dress-up parts, ceramic-coated headers, Edelbrock intake, Edelbrock carburetor and a painted-to-match classic Cadillac-style air cleaner. A Be Cool aluminum radiator with an electric fan keeps it cool. The oil has been recently changed, as has the transmission filter and fluid. The underneath has been undercoated and is as clean as the top side, and the complete cab has had sound-deadening material applied. Stopping is controlled with power front disc brakes with drums in the rear. The power steering directs a 2-inch drop-spindle suspension setup from a 1981 Camaro Z/28 subframe assembly that was seamlessly grafted into the factory frame and boxed where needed. This car sits on 15-inch 5-spoke American Racing wheels wrapped in radial T/A tires. The wood bed with chrome rails to divide the slats and the tailgate operates smoothly. There is a flush-mounted fuel filler in the bed to fill the large aluminum fuel tank underneath. The door handles have been shaved and the doors are operated by door poppers on the key fob. The custom gray leather interior features comfortable 6-way power bucket seats with a console. It also has matching custom door panels and headliner. This vehicle is equipped with an Ididit tilt column, Dakota Digital gauges set in a custom 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air dash. It includes Vintage Air, an aftermarket stereo, power one-piece door windows controlled from the center of the leather-wrapped banjo-style steering wheel, electric wipers and a digital clock.
