Vehicle Description
This is the kind of muscle car that commands attention. It's an
amazingly bright red 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS tribute coupe with
a performance-built big block growling from under the hood. So it
has the look and the sound to turn heads whether it's across the
show field or just at a stoplight.
Bright red with black SS stripes - you sure aren't sneaking around
when you take this one out on the streets. But it takes more than
just investing in upgraded and glossy paint to make a superior
muscle car. Chevelles of this era have that perfectly balanced
design of being both sleek and muscular at the same time, and so a
good classic will emphasize both areas. The chrome bumpers are
clean, and all of the trim is complete and correct. This is
balanced by the aggressive elements like the hood pins and the
power bulge of the cowl induction hood. These two ideas of bright
and intimidation merge perfectly on the 15-inch Cragar SS
wheels.
Inside, that same premium but aggressive feeling continues. It
starts with the dark as midnight interior. It's always great when
the exterior stripes are a preview of the color inside. Plus, you
get all the factory-correct bright accent touches. The bench seats
are the true symbol of a bruiser-style muscle car. Since this can
carry more family and friends, you'll be glad to have everything
from the AM/FM radio to provisions for air conditioning. But a
coupe like this always reserves the best treats just for the
driver. That's why the dual-spoke steering wheel gives you an
unobstructed view of the SS-correct full round gauges cluster that
includes a tachometer.
This is the kind of motor that will make you proud to lift the hood
at car shows. After all, everyone loves the sight of a big block V8
filling in all that space in the engine bay. This setup looks tidy
and clean with its bright Chevy Orange block, matching valve
covers, and shining air topper. Plus, 1971 was the era when the 396
V8 was really displacing 402 cubic-inches, so it's great to have
the proper big block size under the hood. This V8 it has also been
enhanced with performance features like a Edelbrock four-barrel
carburetor, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, and a growling
stainless dual exhaust. It's a true street-eating machine, but
that's not the whole picture. The V8 has been treated to good
maintenance, so it's smoother than many other big blocks. The rear
suspension has even been upgraded with a sway bar and Hotchiks
components. Plus, there's a three-speed automatic transmission,
power steering, and front disc brakes. So you've got an iconic
muscle machine that looks mean, sounds mean, but is quite pleasant
to drive.
This is a Chevelle SS tribute that has the power and poise you
demand. So don't let this turn-key icon slip away, call today!
