Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery of Indy is pleased to present this stunning 1971
Chevelle SS for your consideration. This beautiful '71 Chevelle SS
is a outstanding car that comes to us from the second owner.
Covered in Placer Gold that is complimented by a spotless Saddle
interior with factory Strato-bucket seats, console, and factory
gauges. This outstanding example is a true Z15 SS car that started
as a bare basic L48 car that the current owner decided to change
the build to what the original owner wanted. Under the hood is a
period correct LS7 454 engine, backed by a Turbo 400 automatic
transmission, and mated to a 12 bolt rear end. Factory upgrades
include; Soft-Ray tinted glass, power windows and door locks, tilt
steering, power steering, power brakes, power trunk opener, rear
window defroster, sport steering wheel, AM/FM/ Stereo Radio, front
and rear bumper guards, posi traction rear end with performance
axle ratio, and Z15 SS Equipment. The 53 Placer Gold is 95 percent
original, and still retains the factory black SS stripes. This is a
beautiful example of a survivor that has been altered to reflect
the true power of the early 70's Muscle Car's. Don't miss out on
the one of a kind legend. Drive this one out of our showroom or
have us assist with shipping it to you anywhere in the United
States! Don't hesitate to give us a call with any questions or for
more information.
Although the 1971 Chevelle retained the 1970 body, it was treated
to new front-end and rear-end styling that included large
Power-Beam single-unit headlights, a reworked grille and bumper,
and integral park/signal/marker lights. The grille was widened and
featured a bright horizontal bar that divided it into two sections.
At the center of this bar was a large Chevy bowtie for Malibu's, or
a large "SS" emblem for the SS models. The grille on the Super
Sport was painted flat black, other models got a silver-finished
grill. Base Chevelles got a thinner, plain bar with no
ornamentation. A small "Chevelle" nameplate was located in the
lower-left corner of the grille. New dual round taillights were
integral with the back bumper. Because SS models suffered heavy
insurance surcharges, Chevrolet introduced the "Heavy Chevy" at
midyear, which was based on the base Chevelle, and was available
with any V8 engine except the 454, which was exclusive to SS
models. The Heavy Chevy (RPO YF3) was only available with the base
Chevelle sport coupe (13437) and was primarily a dress-up option
and even it was limited to options available on the standard
Chevelle sport coupe; vinyl carpeting, front bench seat, no center
console shift, etc.
