Description:

There are long distance rallies on the horizon, across Oman and Dubai, Peking to Paris, through India or South America…the starting point for all of these adventures? A car built for the challenge. This 1952 Chevrolet Styleline was purpose built by a rally preparation company with history of building such cars and knowledge of just what is required to succeed. With an original build cost in the region of £160,000 (invoices on file) it features a completely restored body on top of a strong chassis, a rebuilt 3.8 litre overhead valve, 6 cylinder Stovebolt engine and a slick Tremec 600 gearbox connected to a 9” differential. Twin fuel tanks with a combined capacity of 150 litres ensure that you shouldn’t run out of gas in the middle of the Gobi or Sahara deserts (twin fuel pumps) and a bespoke wiring loom for reliability and simplicity. Ultra strong suspension with excellent ground clearance and Goodyear Wrangler tyres.
Inside the cabin is a half roll cage, two extremely comfortable Corbeau leather seats with TRS harnesses, full VDO instrumentation, easy access fuses, a Monit and map light to aid navigation. The Chevrolet was built for the Peking to Paris rally and is a complete, ready to go rally car. 
In the past few months we have completely re- fettled the car, manufactured new seat brackets (for a far more comfortable seating position), serviced it, spanner checked it, comprehensively road tested it, everything works, it’s on the button. Now for sale at a fraction of its build cost, all you need to do is fill in the entry forms to a world of adventures
