When the weather gets warm, reams of cruising down the highway in a jaw-dropping classic are inevitable.

We'll let you fill in the details from there but, f you like where we were going, ave a look at this incredible Chevy Impala. Backing a 520 horsepower LS3 with a Tremec Magnum 6-speed, Schwartz G-Machine chassis and show-stopping aesthetics, his national award-winning coupe has been drawing stares ever since it rolled in to our showroom. And if you're ready to feel the summer breeze behind the wheel of a unique, orld-class custom, t's a chance to turn your dreams into reality!

BODYWORK/TRIM

The beneficiary of a body-off, otisserie restoration that spared absolutely no expense, his stunning Chevy features detailed, ll-American aesthetics that mix traditional, irrored accents with glossy, et-looking 2-stage. The build began when Muscoda, isconsin's Ken's Klassics stripped the car's fuselage all the way to bare metal. Once that mostly-solid facade was fitted with small quarter panel patches, ll body gaps and style lines were carefully massaged to uniformity. When that razor-sharp profile was fully prepped, resh and decidedly intricate trim was augmented with modern headlights, actory mirrors, inted glass and dual factory antennas. And today, his coupe rolls as one world-class custom that's competent, omfortable and poised to be featured in Chevy High Performance Magazine!

ENGINE

Toss the car's long hood and you'll find a hot LS3 small block that, hanks to the pros at Schwartz Performance, ooks ALMOST as good as it runs! GM Powertrain invested a great deal of time and research into getting the most out of its Gen IV V8, nd it definitely shows. Changes started with a 20% stronger casting, eaturing an increased bore of 103.25mm. Focus then shifted to flow efficiency, esulting in the use of an all-new intake manifold and L92 rectangle-port heads; which Schwartz further improved with upgraded dual valve springs. Factor in ARP bolts, new piston design, S7 injectors, nd a Schwartz-installed custom-grind cam and you get one very potent commuter that creates a stout 520 horsepower. At the front of the block, conical K&N filter element funnels wind in to a painted air tube, hich is hooked to a factory throttle body via Vibrant silicon. At the sides of that throttle body, oated long-tube headers bend under high quality AC Delco plug wires. At the front of those headers, illet serpentine pulleys spin a quality Powermaster alternator and familiar Sanden AC compressor above modern power steering and an ATI Super Damper. In front of those pulleys, lightweight Griffin radiator utilizes color-keyed water tubes to swirl coolant around a Be Cool expansion tank and two SPAL puller fans. A GM ECU combines with a GM wiring harness to ensure everything communicates well. Details like polished brace bars, tainless fluid lines, olished fuel rail covers and 2-piece Billet Specialties valve covers ensure the mill maintains first-class presentation. And all that glitz is framed in glossy, olor-keyed fenders and a smooth, ody-matched firewall.

DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION

Park this Chevy on a lift and you'll find a super clean undercarriage that's been prepped, rimped and polished to match the car's slick powerplant and stunning exterior. The well-mannered motor twists a beefy Tremec T56 Magnum, hich is sandwiched between a custom steel driveshaft and hydraulic, S7-spec clutch. That awesome gearbox spins a tough Moser 9-inch that's fitted with 3.70 gears, proven Truetrac differential and beefy, 1-spline axles. That Ford-inspired pumpkin is an integral part of a sturdy Schwartz Performance G-Machine chassis, hich backs splined, acing-style sway bars with adjustable Ridetech coil-overs. Modern power rack-and-pinion steering provides tracking. Quick stops are a cinch thanks to Baer 6-piston calipers, hich utilize a quality Wilwood master cylinder to squeeze 14-inch Baer Pro+ rotors. Coated, andrel-bent exhaust pipes route spent gases through an X-shaped crossover and coated turbo mufflers. Four fully polished Billet Specialties Turbines throw torque through 245/40ZR19 and 295/35ZR20 Michelin Pilot Super Sports. And everything, rom the car's undercoated floors to its fresh fuel tank, s well planned, xceptionally executed and ready to roll!

INTERIOR

Open the car's doors and you'll find a custom leather cockpit that was installed by Steve Holcomb of Knoxville, ennessee's Pro Auto Interior. Top dead center, matte-finished dash frames slick carbon fiber-look telemetry. Opposite that dash, 64 Impala buckets frame a custom console that balances a familiar Hurst shifter between full power windows, intage Air climate control and Kenwood Excelon infotainment. Beneath that console, lean California Carpet floats piped and color-keyed floor mats beneath custom side panels and a custom package tray. In front of the driver, tilting Ididit column spins a traditional Impala wheel. Behind the passengers, leather-lined trunk hides the car's relocated battery. And, n addition to being wrapped in quality Dynamat insulation, he attractive cab features GPS and a full security system.
