Description of 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 |
|
Body off the frame restored, 454, 4-speed and factory air! EXTERIOR: This car is laser straight, looking down each side and over the tops of the car there are no waves. It's smooth all along the bottoms, no signs of rust or bubbles. It has the SS raised hood. The metal flake is laid out evenly and the clear coat has been polished like glass, it's even smooth to the touch. You don't even feel the SS stripes. The jambs are painted slick. There are new weatherstrips and window seals. The windshield's been replaced. The bumpers, headlight bezels, front marker lights, mirrors, handles, tail light lenses were replaced. It has correct 15x7 SS wheels, they've been restored and the BFG tires still look new. INTERIOR: It's been restored very well inside. On the floor it has new carpets, reproduction floor mats, original GM seat belts and the correct Muncie shifter for a bench seat. It has the correct shift bezel and boot too. The seat and headrest upholstery has been replaced. New door panels, window cranks, armrests and door handles. Up above the headliner is real nice, the dome light has an LED bulb. In front of me it has a factory SS gauge package with the tachometer. Everything's real nice including the heater control panel, dash pad, vents. It still has new original AM radio in the dash. There is a modern stereo under the seat, new 6x9 speakers in the back. ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It is completely restored. The 454 motor looks fresh and runs perfectly well. It has stock manifolds and chrome valve covers. It is upgraded with a Holley Dominator dual feed carb with electric choke and an HEI ignition system. New radiator, shroud and clutch fan. Hoses were replaced and has reproduction clamps. Factory air conditioning system has been updated with R134 freon. The firewall and bottom of the hood are painted body color. Wiper motor looks, washers are hooked up. It also features power steering and power brakes. TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The trunk compartment is complete and finished nicely. Clean metal with a coat of spatter finish paint. It has a trunk mat, spare tire cover, painted rim on the spare and the jack looks new. I see new insulation behind the seat, new weatherstrip and new decal. Bottom of the trunk lid and the jamb are painted real slick. UNDERSIDE: The body was off the frame for restoration. New floor pans were welded in, it's all solid. The bottom of the car was undercoated. The chassis was completely restored. It has F-41 suspension which includes swaybars and boxed control arms. The front end components were rebuilt- new bushings, shocks, springs, ball joints etc. It was detailed out with assembly line markings. Looking up at the motor it's still real clean- new fuel pump, motor mounts and starter. The Muncie 4-speed and linkage also look very clean. In back it has 12 bolt with 3.31 gears. it has a correct dual exhaust system, even with the resonators in back and cowbell tips. It looks like the fuel tank, straps and sending unit were replaced. The brakes were redone. It has disc in front. The emergency brake cable and the brake lines look new. I drove this car home and liked it. The motor runs spot on. Fires right up and idles smooth. Very desirable features. Beautifully restored, I would be proud to take it to any show. Although getting there would be most the fun!
