The car is refinished in orange with black stripes and a black B-pillar. Details include a cowl-induction hood, LED projection lights, tinted windows, 427 badging, and chrome bumpers.
The 17″ US Mags wheels are mounted with 225/45 front and 235/50 rear Michelin Pilot Sport tires. Suspension modifications include subframe connectors, CalTrac traction bars, and a SpeedTech front suspension with Viking coilovers. Wilwood brake calipers are mounted over cross-drilled and slotted rotors at all four corners.
The aftermarket front bucket seats trimmed in black cloth and vinyl and are accompanied by a center console with storage and cupholders. Additional equipment includes a Hurst shifter, Chevrolet bow tie-branded floor mats, and an aftermarket stereo system with a Kenwood Bluetooth-capable head unit and a trunk-mounted Kicker amplifier and subwoofer.
A wood-rimmed steering wheel is mounted to a tilt column, and it frames AutoMeter instrumentation. A tachometer with a shift light is centrally mounted underneath the dash. The five-digit odometer shows 33k miles, and total mileage is unknown.
The 427ci V8 produced maximum outputs of 601 horsepower and 545 lb-ft of torque during a 2019 dynamometer run, and a seller provided list of components notes the following:
- Dart SHP 427 engine block
- Dart aluminum cylinder headers

Additional equipment includes a Holley carburetor, an Edelbrock intake manifold, an 8-quart oil pan, Chevrolet-branded aluminum valve covers, Hooker exhaust headers, ProFlow mufflers, an aluminum radiator with dual electric fans, and an MSD distributor, ignition box, and coil. The oil was changed in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Tremec five-speed manual transmission and a Ford 9″ rear end said to be fitted with a 4.30:1 Detroit TrueTrac limited-slip differential. The car is also equipped with a Quick Time Centerforce flywheel and clutch.
