For Sale: 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle in Marietta, Georgia

1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Pro Touring - ProCharged 502 / 800+ HP / 4L80E Automatic

This 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Pro Touring is a serious frame-off, nut-and-bolt-built street machine finished in slick Cortez Silver over a black bucket-seat interior. Built from a rust-free body with rust-free floors, this Chevelle combines classic A-body muscle car styling with massive forced-induction big-block power, upgraded suspension, modern braking, Vintage heat and air conditioning, and over $100,000 invested.

Powered by a fully reworked 502/502 GM crate big-block V8 now making over 800 horsepower, this Chevelle is far beyond a typical cruiser. The engine is force-fed by an intercooled DB1 ProCharger, paired with a blow-through 950 carburetor and complete MSD ignition system. Backing the power is a 4L80E automatic transmission, giving the car a strong, proven drivetrain setup built to handle serious horsepower.

Exterior
The body is finished in Cortez Silver, one of the most attractive and timeless colors on a classic Chevrolet muscle car. The paint has a slick, clean presentation that works perfectly with the Chevelle's long hood, muscular quarter panels, chrome trim, and aggressive pro-touring stance.

This car was treated to a complete frame-off nut-and-bolt restoration, and the build started with a rust-free body and floors. The exterior keeps a clean, classic look while the stance, wheels, hood treatment, and performance hardware make it clear this is not a stock Chevelle.

The black top, dark hood accents, polished wheels, and lowered stance give this car a sinister street-machine look without taking away from the clean Chevelle body lines.

Wheels & Stance
This Chevelle sits on staggered 18-inch front and 20-inch rear billet wheels, giving it a modern pro-touring profile with the right amount of attitude.

The suspension has been upgraded with Hotchkis adjustable rear trailing arms and sway bars, helping control the power and sharpen the car's road manners. The overall stance is low, wide, and aggressive - exactly what you want from a high-horsepower pro touring A-body.

Interior
Inside, the car features a clean black bucket-seat interior with a factory-style layout and tasteful performance upgrades. The cabin includes bucket seats, a floor shifter, AutoMeter gauges, an Alpine stereo system, and Vintage heat and air conditioning.

A 6-point roll cage with removable bars** adds to the serious street-car feel while still keeping the interior usable. The removable bars help maintain practicality while giving the car the performance-minded structure and look expected from a build of this level.

The interior remains comfortable enough to enjoy on the street, but every detail reminds you this Chevelle was built with real horsepower in mind.

Engine & Performance
Under the hood is the centerpiece of the build: a fully reworked 502/502 GM crate engine now producing over 800 horsepower. The engine is equipped with an intercooled DB1 ProCharger, a blow-through 950 carburetor, and a complete MSD ignition system.

This is a serious forced-induction big-block combination. The 502 cubic-inch foundation provides massive torque, while the ProCharger adds the kind of boost and top-end pull that turns this Chevelle into a true street monster.

A mandrel-bent 3-inch exhaust system gives the big-block the sound and flow it deserves.

Drivetrain
Backing the ProCharged 502 is a 4L80E automatic transmission, one of the most respected and durable automatic transmissions in the muscle car world. Known for strength and reliability, the TH400 is the right kind of transmission for a high-horsepower big-block build like this.

Power is sent to a 12-bolt rear end with 3.73 gears, Positraction, and Moser C-clip eliminator axles. That rear-end setup gives the car the strength and gearing needed to handle serious power while still keeping it street-friendly.

Suspension, Steering & Brakes
This Chevelle has been upgraded to support the power. It features quick-ratio power steering, giving the car a more responsive feel from behind the wheel. The Hotchkis adjustable rear trailing arms and sway bars help tighten up the chassis and improve overall handling.

Stopping power comes from power 4-wheel disc brakes, an important upgrade on a car with this level of horsepower. Combined with the upgraded steering and suspension, this Chevelle is built to be more than just a straight-line bruiser.

The Drive
This is a serious street car with show-quality presence and brutal performance potential. The ProCharged 502 delivers over 800 horsepower, the 4L80E automatic provides proven strength, and the 12-bolt rear with 3.73 gears helps put the power down.

At the same time, this Chevelle still has the comfort features that make it enjoyable to drive. Vintage heat and air conditioning, power steering, power 4-wheel disc brakes, an Alpine stereo, and a clean black interior make it far more usable than most cars with this kind of power.

Fully serviced and ready to enjoy, this 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Pro Touring is the kind of build that looks incredible, drives with confidence, and has enough power to demand respect every time you put your foot down.
