"What began as a 68 bird with great bones and a sick drivetrain, Pontiac 455 fully built by @butlerperformance pushing through a #tciautomotive th400… but the magic stopped there. This bird was stuck in the past with the race spec carburetor and lacking fuel system left her owner @rogeralvaradotattoo flooded, vapor locked, and stranded.
Only headlights and taillights operational and a hard brake pedal, this was no road warrior yet…
But we made this Phoenix soar with @holleyperformance terminator EFI, full fuel system, tank, sending unit & regulator.
Custom hardline and @finishlinefactory AN fittings and hoses. This big cube
beast purrs like a lion 🦁
@vintageair_ ac system to keep the driver and his honey cool on the hot days
@cvfracing pulley system with custom spacers for all our accessories to run smooth on an 8 rib belt
#CPP hydroboost topped off with @wilwooddiscbrakes master cylinder this baby stops on a dime with ease!
#raingear hidden wiper system, modern wiper motor tucked in the cowel eliminating the chunky motor on the firewall & these wipers are reliable, don’t fret the rain!
#retrosound Radio with 6” dash speaker and 2 rear enclosed 6x9s allows to cruise and jam to the tunes
@dakota_digital gauges and GPS module allows accurate speed, rpm, fuel level, water temp & oil pressure as well as all of our indicator lights and even set warnings.
@bandmracing_official line lock for sick burnies or prepping for the perfect launch 🚀
Restored and painted dashboard, all new chrome, bezels, trim, & switches. Restored light sockets and housings. New Halo project headlights with integrated turn signals. Completely re-wired with everything operational including a horn! My first priority was to maintain the clean athletic and minimalism of a carbureted vehicle of this era with all the latest tech. This led the greatest challenge of hiding all the modules and wiring behind this small dash. There is really to much to list. Stay tuned for more in-depth of the project.
Now this beast will conquer any road
Long love the Phoenix #brakebank ”
