ebay sighting: 454 Sport

[KIILew]

Just spotted this on ebay...one of the rarest of the rare, I think - - a true 454-powered Chevy Sport! I don't think I have ever seen a factory 454-powered Sport or Street Coupe outside of various 1977-1979-era magazine tests. I can't substantiate the production figures given in the auction, but I do know that the Sports I have seen have had small blocks (or even sixes!).

This particular one has been repainted a different color than original with the decals removed, and various Silverado interior trim bits have replaced those of the original Scottsdale package. Other items like the grill, steering, seat, wheels (from original spokes to ralleys) etc, have been changed, but this is still the real deal as attested to by the option listing and hood ornament.

A real stunner!
