Ultimate Audio of Lexington, South Carolina may have just created the top custom Chevelle in the world – and it ain’t even close.  Thomas Davis of the Carolina Panthers has been known for years as one of the big dogs in the custom car game and his most recent addition to the fleet may have topped them all.

The heart of this frame-off creation is a 454 LSX twin-turbo power plant that puts out an insane (although undisclosed) amount of horsepower while remaining reliable enough for a Sunday cruise. The engine bay features tons of custom billet Georgia Bulldog valve covers, custom-molded, exterior-matching engine bay covers and billet hood hinges. Also up front, the Chevelle features red halo headlights and a custom chin spoiler.
Moving inside, the interior has been updated with a new-school Corvette dash and center console giving this old school Chevelle a new lease on life. For the body, the fenders were extended to accommodate the 24×10 and 24×12 Forgiato Giare-ECL wheels, with faces painted to match the exterior. The additions are virtually limitless on this heavy Chevy!
