Vehicle Description
With its sinister-style dark presentation and growling big block V8
power, this 1971 Chevrolet El Camino SS 454 has the attitude you're
going to love. And when you see the little extras, like the bucket
seat interior, it proves this is the classic car/truck you've been
waiting for.
This is a good-looking muscle machine. After all, it shares the
face with one of the most iconic vehicles to hit the road: the '71
Chevelle SS. In fact, the Super Sport style is strong on this one
with an intimidating first impression that includes the blackout
grille w/SS badging, cowl hood, and white racing stripes painted on
top. The glossy black paint adds to this mean attitude. Combined
with the good sheetmetal and panel fit, it has the right look you
want for a quality classic. Plus, it has plenty of classic American
brightwork with the chrome bumper, upgraded 15-inch wheels, and a
full trim package that highlights the El Camino's unique truck
bed.
The dark intimidation continues inside. The carpeting, headliner,
and dash have that deep black appearance of quality. There are even
nice details, like the factory air conditioning controls (it will
need components and servicing to return the function.) Plus, the
upgraded bucket seats offer plenty of comfort with wide headrests
and good bolstering. And this one really likes being a driver's
machine. You have a center console with horseshoe shifter, three
spoke sports steering wheel on a tilt column, an auxiliary readout
trio, and a sporty SS-style gauge pack that includes a large speedo
and tach.
This El Camino truly has a dark heart with a well-built 454
cubic-inch V8. Not only is the big block finished in black, but
also the air grabber, intake, and other details for a distinct and
attractive style. More than just look nice, you have some pretty
nice power, too. It's upgraded with a Holley four-barrel
carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and Doug's headers that flow into the
rumbling H-pipe dual exhaust. There's even nice supporting
components such as MSD ignition and aluminum radiator with dual
electric fans. The TH400 three-speed automatic transmission is both
a strong and stout unit, and that feeds a beefy 12-bolt rear end.
Plus, with power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and wide
BF Goodrich T/As, this is a solid all-around driver.
Complete with build receipts, this is the iconic classic with big
block power and a terrific mean-streak look. When something this
desirable is also so affordable, you don't want to miss out. Call
