The Barn Find Chevelle Gets A Brake Upgrade

The barn find Chevelle Marc and Tommy are working on in Detroit Muscle has gotten the whole nine yards. And it wouldn’t be complete without a new brake kit from EBC Brakes.

The guys installed a Stage 6 Track Day dimpled and slotted brake kit. Of course that comes with 3GD Series dimpled and slotted sport rotors and Blue Stuff NDX Formula Racing Brake Pads. You can watch the installation and other upgrades including plumbing and how to cut a run out of clear coat in the full episode on PowerNationTV.com

This week on PowerNation Katie welcomes hot rod builder Steve Legens of Legens Hot Rod Shop in Martin, Tennessee. And with him a gorgeous 1960 Ford truck! One very interesting change Steve’s team made to the pickup was to the side trim; Ford never ran it down the entire side, but now that long strip of chrome trim looks fantastic. They dropped in a Coyote engine with a Borla fuel injection making about 510 horsepower. The Schott Wheels are a nice touch. There’s no missing the custom PPG red paint they call “Cardinal Red” because owner Jeff Perkins is a huge Cardinal’s fan! Inside distressed Pecan color leather seats and a Tan interior, plus with stock gauges give the truck that vintage look. One beautifully restored truck inside and out, front to back. Check it out this week on PowerNation.
