Osprey Custom 4x4, world-renowned builders of custom vehicles, proudly present their latest accomplishment: an exemplary Nautical Blue 5-Door Station Wagon that seamlessly combines modern automotive craftsmanship with peerless heritage motoring.

 

This elegant build was completed in June 2023 by our team of skilled Master Craftsmen at our headquarters in Castle Hayne, North Carolina. It is motivated by a bulletproof 6.2L Corvette LS3 V8 engine, paired with a smooth-shifting 6L80E 6-speed automatic transmission controlled by a PCS® push-button gear selector with LED display. The heavy-duty LT230 transfer case, equipped with a center differential lock, ensures that all four wheels receive as much of the 430+ horsepower and 425+ pound-feet of torque as possible. Hailed by AutoBlog as "unquestionably good", this powertrain effortlessly conquers any terrain. Additionally, the vehicle boasts updated front and rear disc brakes, guaranteeing quiet, safe, swift, and efficient stops.

 

The upgraded heavy-duty front and rear axles are mounted on the new hot-dipped galvanized chassis, supported by slightly elevated  Terrafirma® shocks and springs. The chassis features Terrafirma® caster-corrected front and cranked rear radius arms,  track rod, drag link, and steering damper, all safeguarded by a heavy-duty aluminum front skid plate. The vehicle stands on bold, satin black 18-inch Kahn “1983” alloy wheels wrapped with beefy 275/70R18 Goodyear® Wrangler Territory® MT (Maximum Traction) tires offering superb traction on or off-road with an open tread design that provides the traction you need even when the pavement ends.

 

The body has been expertly finished in deep Nautical Blue Metallic with sleek and sophisticated deep-tinted, flush-fitting rear side- and rear quarter-glass panels complemented by color-matched wheel arches and trim, all completed at our in-house body and paint facility. At the front end, the vehicle showcases a gloss black KBX® grille with a satin silver wire mesh insert, gloss black light surrounds, and side intake and forced-air wing top vents with satin silver accents. The Optimill® LED-illuminated puddle lamps, custom LED-illuminated, laser-etched "Osprey" black anodized aluminum door handles, along with the black anodized aluminum door, bonnet, and windscreen hinges enhance the exterior color scheme.

 

For modern and precise illumination, LED headlamps with smoked marker, turn, reverse, and tail lamps have been installed. The impressive front features a satin black powder-coated slim-line bumper with two integrated LED daytime running lamps. At the rear, the vehicle features a satin black powder-coated North American Spec (NAS) step bumper, designed to accommodate a high-definition rearview camera, a 2-inch hitch receiver, and jacking/recovery points.

 

Satin black powder-coated tubular side steps assist with ingress and egress to the passenger cabin where you’ll find a modern-style dash that provides excellent heating and air conditioning, ensuring the occupants are comfortable year-round. This 9-passenger, family-sized Station Wagon is also equipped with our new rear air conditioning system, providing your guests additional cooling on those hot summer days.

 

The well-appointed interior is complete with rich Black Leather upholstered heated front sport seats with chic, contrasting diamond stitching and matching middle-row heated seats. The four side-facing, stowable rear seats with matching upholstery provide the ultimate flexibility — seating for additional friends and family or true utilitarian cargo space — with over 55 cubic feet available when the seats are folded. The dash and door cards are upholstered in the same supple Black Leather and to top it all off, the headliner is swathed in luxurious charcoal Alcantara.

 

Behind the leather-wrapped steering wheel is an impressive driver command center focused around a satin black center fascia housing the state-of-the-art infotainment system featuring an Atoto® S8 Android-based 7-inch HD capacitive touch-screen head unit with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto®, dual Bluetooth®, built-in Digital Signal Processor, and GPS navigation backed by a rich sounding Rockford Fosgate® 8-speaker array powered by a Blaupunkt® 4-channel, 1600 watt amplifier.

Convenient amenities in the vehicle include central locking, power windows, a leather-wrapped center console with a storage cubby, a wireless charger for your mobile device, USB charging points, and two oversized aluminum cup holders. The front windscreen is heated for extra frosty mornings, and security is handled by a Viper® keyless entry system with remote starting. To protect the interior, heavy-duty rubber floor mats are provided for the fully carpeted front footwells and rear loadspace/passenger area.
