Vehicle Description
1971 Chevrolet Chevelle
There is no arguing that the Chevelle ranks among the most popular
muscle cars and if you are in the market for one that you can hop
in and drive anywhere, you just found it! This is a very nicely
built 71 Chevelle that has the perfect combo of the vintage muscle
look with modern features. It was done in a pro touring style so
whether you are cruising down to the local car show or heading out
on the Power Tour you can do it without a second thought. The car
was originally built in Arlington, TX and sold to the first owner
in Euless, TX. From there it was sold to the second and then
current owner who are also a TX residents. The car underwent a
complete body off rebuild that was completed in the summer of 2015.
The chassis and body panels are all original as is the vinyl top
which is something you don't see everyday. That shows how well it
was cared for even prior to the rebuild. The frame has been
entirely powder coated and the body fully undercoated to avoid any
future rust issues. During the process it was closely inspected for
rust and found to be entirely rust free. The paint has been redone
in a nice Black with Silver racing stripes. Red pinstriping frames
the center stripes which adds a really nice touch of color to the
exterior. All of the chrome and stainless has been replaced to
insure a like new shining finish. The car looks extremely tough
rolling down the road and the aftermarket custom Boss wheels are
the perfect match for the car.
A new 383 stroker motor has been added under the hood and puts out
453 HP which is plenty to get those wheels spinning. The car drives
down the road well and is fast in the short distance while still
being a comfortable cruiser on the highway. The motor has been very
nicely dressed up with multiple billet and chrome components
throughout. A custom polished stainless piece was created for the
front gap behind the grill and helps to make the engine compartment
show ready. The motor is paired with a 700R4 automatic transmission
with overdrive that transfers power back to the 12 bolt positrac
rear end. the entire suspension system has been replaced with CPP
components as well as the brakes which have been converted to 4
wheel power discs. That along with Power Steering makes the car
just as easy to drive as your company car.
The fun doesn't stop there because the interior is just as nice as
the rest. Prior to the installation the original floor panels were
gone over with a fine tooth comb and found to be in great
condition. The entire cab was then topped with sound proof
Dyno-Mat. Done in a plush Black leather upholstery the entirely new
interior looks great and is very comfortable. It features high back
bucket seats up front, the original bench in rear and custom door
panels. Between the seats a custom center console was constructed
to house the Lokar shifter and incorporate 2 cupholders. The dash
was very nicely done incorporating modern features with a nod to
the original layout and look. Autometer gauges were frenched into a
custom panel and with their brushed aluminum finish beautiful is
the only way to describe them. We know, gauges are "beautiful"?
Well to a car guy, YES! The dash is also where you will find the
custom Kenwood stereo, Vintage Air AC controls and the billet power
window switches. An Ididit tilt steering column sits nicely in
front of the driver and is topped off with a woodgrain steering
wheel.
