If you're looking for an awesome vintage cruiser that could almost pass for a show-stopping magazine cover car, and one that's been totally sorted and is ready to cruise, this 1960 Chevrolet Biscayne just might be your huckleberry. Comprehensively upgraded from a bare-bones commuter car, it's now a fantastic restomod packing a fuel-injected 5.7L V8 Corvette motor under the hood that was built to rule the streets.
Finished in striking Aqua Blue livery, this Biscayne knows how to get attention, and it was built right knowing it would always attract a crowd. Starting with a clean, original car was the key to getting such clean results and it really looks great today with laser straight bodywork and a slick, top driver-quality finish that has held up very well through the years. Hailing from a climate that's friendly to vintage sheetmetal, it was stripped bare and then covered in several coats of bright white on the roof and brilliant Aqua on the rest of the body. And despite some very minor signs of use (most of which could easily be buffed out with a good detail), there's still a great shine and the finish is deep enough to easily get lost inside. It obviously received a thorough restoration, and the builders went the extra mile to get those long quarter panels straight and smooth and to ensure that all the wonderful details of the 1960 Chevrolet design were crisp and sharp. The iconic wrap-around windshield is in excellent condition, and the sleek roof line makes it look fast just standing still. The Biscayne didn't have as much brightwork as the Impala, but don't worry, there's still plenty of bright trim, including delicate stainless outlining those tailfins and handsome chrome bumpers that tuck in tight to the bodywork. The front grille and headlights are stock, the 'rocket' taillights are amazing, and those 'angry owl' style fins out back are definitely jet-age cool. There just aren't many cars that can compete with this one on sheer eyeball appeal.
The interior is as neatly finished as the exterior, featuring a big, split bench up front and a matching one in the rear, proving more than enough room for you and all your friends. Upholstered in handsome two-tone cloth, the seats are all-day comfortable, and the flanking door panels and plush carpets below give the big 2-door a completed look and feel inside. The wide dash is nicely painted and features five individual gauge pods filled with factory instruments, augmented with a trio of AutoMeter auxiliary units below and a big Street Tach strapped to the steering column that keep a keen eye on the upgraded motor up ahead. Like most Biscaynes from the era, creature comforts are sacrificed for performance, and that's precisely what the tall Hurst shifter is about - topped with a white cue ball knob that beckons the driver to bang through the Muncie and have a little fun. The original steering wheel was left in place during the restoration and we absolutely love the design, and even the original AM radio survived through the decades, although it will need to be augmented with a modern unit if you want some tunes. Out back, the massive trunk is shows off solid pans and excellent original sheetmetal, and it houses a couple mats and a full-size spare.
Under the hood, the original engine was dumped in favor of a Corvette 5.7L V8 LT1 that instantly turned this Biscayne into an absolute missile. Installed in 2019, the '96-model LT1 was augmented with an LT4 hot cam and lifters for added horsepower, along with a Street and Performance wiring harness and computer system for modern dependability and responsiveness. Despite the obvious LTI intake and squared air filter, the motor practically looks like it always belonged, with blacked-out finned valve covers matching the shiny black firewall and inner fenders. With all those extra cubes it makes enough horsepower to be entertaining, but at the same time it was designed to be a superior long-distance cruiser so it's tame enough for regular driving. The modern serpentine belt system and newer components throughout mean that it's easy to service at any Chevy dealer, and the big radiator up front keeps the engine nice and cool. Power steering, power front disc brakes, and an upgraded suspension all help make this Chevy feel decades younger, and the later-model Muncie 4-speed manual (with a larger 32-spline output shaft) spins an original rear end filled with 3.36 gears that can handle itself both off-the-line and at higher cruising speeds. Street and Performance coated long-tube headers feed into a throaty Magnaflow dual exhaust system, so the soundtrack is fantastic. Black steelies adorned with correct chrome hubcaps finish off the killer vintage vibe and are fitted with 215/60/15 front and 235/70/15 rear BFGoodrich T/A radials that fill those big wheel wells perfectly.
Nicely finished and totally sorted, this very slick Biscayne restomod more than delivers on the promises made by its killer look and awesome sound. Call today!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES
: A documentation fee of 9 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY
: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT
: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION
: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT
: We require a non-refundable 0 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers. SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME
: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE
: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION
: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES
: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION
: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS
: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!

Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied.
