Mo’ Muscle Stepside! - PowerNation 2017 Week #17
Mo’ Muscle Cars 1962 Chevy Stepside Restomod – Where Vintage Meets Velocity
Feast your eyes on this 1962 Chevrolet Stepside, a stunning example of vintage craftsmanship reimagined for the modern era by the expert team at Mo’ Muscle Cars. Brought to life over 16 months, this build pairs timeless truck styling with performance and comfort that rival today’s best.
At first glance, the truck preserves its classic lines and period-correct presence—but under the skin, it’s a fully modernized machine. Powering this showpiece is a fuel-injected 5.3L LC9 Chevrolet crate engine, pushing out 325 horsepower and tuned for smooth, reliable street performance.
Full Modern Suspension & Coil-Over Setup
Beneath the body sits a completely modern suspension system featuring fully adjustable coil-overs, engineered for both handling and ride comfort. This blend of classic charm and road-ready performance makes the ’62 Stepside a joy to drive—whether cruising to car shows or hitting weekend roads.
One-of-a-Kind “Annie Gray” Paint
This truck turns heads with a custom BASF R-M finish dubbed “Annie Gray,” a subtle yet sophisticated color tailored to this build’s personality. Combined with 18-inch custom Rally-style wheels, the stance is aggressive without being overdone—perfectly proportioned and balanced.
Details That Matter: Hickory Bed & Leather Interior
The truck bed is lined in real Hickory wood, polished and protected for that upscale-yet-rugged look. Inside, the cabin is wrapped in European leather, offering modern amenities and refined comfort while maintaining the truck’s nostalgic roots. Every stitch and panel speaks to Mo’ Muscle Cars' obsession with quality and craftsmanship.
