69 Cutlass Restoration - Chimera Motors

69 Cutlass Convertible

John's 69 Cutlass came to us to begin his staged restoration process. We started with qualifying the motor and determining that a rebuild was necessary. At the same time we began a complete engine bay detail, taking everything down to bare metal. We also did a full front end rebuild in the process. We will reassemble and detail everything to factory specs.
