A replacement 455ci V8 with a Tremec five-speed manual transmission powers this 442 Holiday Coupe. The engine was built with Mondello Performance cylinder heads, forged internals, a hydraulic roller camshaft, 10:1 compression, a Demon carburetor, an Edelbrock intake, and coated long-tube headers. The body was stripped and repainted Hot Rod Yellow with black stripes and blue flame designs, with rust repaired below the rear window and the bumpers, glass, and weatherstripping replaced.
