Few names inspire awe and reverence in the Golden Age of muscle
cars than the Chevelle SS. One look at this gold 1971 Chevrolet
Chevelle with its black vinyl top and matching racing stripes, and
it's easy to see why this car has left an indelible mark on the
autoverse. This particular Chevelle's upgraded tubular A-arm front
suspension and reinforced ladder bar rear setup work perfectly with
its 15-inch Cragar wheels in 255/60R-15 front and 275/60R-15 rear
Cooper tires to give this car its menacing stance.
We find a beautifully redone black-on-black interior complete with
Procar seats, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, and an aftermarket
shifter. A white-faced Sunpro gauge adds the right amount of
contrast while providing feedback on oil pressure and engine
temperature.
Under the hood, the valve covers (and the owner) tell us that a 383
cubic inch small block V-8 propels this road rocket. That motor is
complemented by aluminum heads, an Edelbrock carburetor, a Weiand
aluminum intake, long tube headers, and a sweet-sounding FlowMaster
exhaust. That power is then funneled through a Tremec TKX
five-speed manual transmission before heading out to the 12-bolt
rear end, waiting to turn the stab of the throttle into the thrill
of a lifetime. While it may be over half a century old, this 1971
Chevelle still offers relatively modern conveniences like power
front disc brakes and power steering to bolster an already exciting
ride.

Though its nameplate has been absent from Chevy showrooms for
decades, the name Chevelle still echoes through time, and after
only about a quarter mile in this car, it won't be hard to
understand why. Call today!
