Vehicle Description
This 1971 Chevrolet Camaro SS is the ideal balance of original
numbers-matching features (like the V8 and the four-speed) while
also getting the right upgrades along the way (like the timeless
color combo.) The result is a sweet classic muscle machine offered
at quite a nice price.
An early second-gen Camaro all dressed in red is quite hard to
beat. After all, this has some of the purest lines ever put to a
Chevy. The pointed front end accented by a form-fitting chrome
bumper. The crisp line that runs through the entire middle of the
profile. And the recessed rear end created by the sheetmetal and
bumper joining together seamlessly. This all tells you a stylist
really worked on this coupe. And it even has European-inspired
touches, like the fastback silhouette and the headlights pushed way
out front. And you can see it all so well thanks to good sheetmetal
and glossy paint on this example. Plus, you're reminded of the
extra aggressive nature that goes along with this style thanks to
pieces like the SS badging and upgraded American Racing Torq Thrust
wheels.
Black interiors always go great with the red exteriors - that's why
this coupe was upgraded to this timeless color combo later in life.
The interior features the correct high-backed bucket seats, which
debuted for the 1971 model year. These look great, right down to
the proper button-top presentation. In fact, while this interior is
all part of an upgrade, you will almost swear it was born this way.
The door panels, dash, carpeting, and center console all have a
nice black appearance, and they have the right amount of
survivor-like quality to feel original. Even the factory AM radio
is still on display! But what you'll really love is the feeling
that comes from resting your right hand on top of that stick shift,
and then grabbing the classic steering wheel that gives you a
commanding view of the gauges.
Under the hood is the original numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8.
It looks great with the bold orange block, matching valve covers,
and an air topper that's authentic, right down to the "Keep your GM
car all GM" decal. It inhales deeply through a Holley four-barrel
carburetor, and it exhales with authority thanks to a
glasspack-style dual exhaust. The Muncie M20 four-speed manual
transmission is also original to the car, and it's stout enough to
give you full control over the V8 power. Plus, with power steering,
front disc brakes, and Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires, this is a
great coupe to handle the streets.
The right originality and the right upgrades combine to create the
2nd gen classic Camaro you've always wanted. So don't let it slip
away, call today!
