Chevrolet's Chevelle is an iconic mid-sizer that saw life between 1964 and 1977. Produced across three generations, this second-generation 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Restomod is not quite as stock as you'd expect. We see it's undergone a tasteful resto-modding process that retains its signature Sixties and Seventies styling cues, melded with modern conveniences. That's not all; it's also received a comprehensive overhaul of the mechanicals. Read on to find out why you should seriously consider it.
From the outside, this 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Restomod looks suitably menacing but not ostentatious. Draped in a flat white paint job, it sports the iconic twin black racing stripes across the steel factory cowl induction hood and trunk lid. Rolling on polished five-spoke alloy wheels, you're bound to notice the thick and broad tires surrounding them. This 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Restomod is no garage queen, after all, but a drag strip brute. Twin exhaust pipes with Flowmaster performance mufflers jut straight out the rear for added drama – and noise. The black interior is mostly period but sports some updates. The current owner reports updated air conditioning to keep things cool. As reported by the current owner, there's also a retro-style AM/FM/iPod stereo in the dash with Bluetooth. A Grant G/T custom steering wheel caps things off nicely. Don't expect to use the trunk, though, because there's a lot in there already, as we shall discover shortly.
Let's get into the exciting stuff. Beneath the hood of this 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Restomod lies a 502ci crate motor that's said to be good for over 900 horsepower, no doubt helped by the Procharger supercharger system that's been installed. A Ram Performance clutch and flywheel, coupled with a five-speed Tremec manual transmission with a B&M transmission cooler, sends drive via a custom drive shaft to a Ford 9-inch Sure Lock rear differential and onto those steamroller-like rear tires. Trunk-mounted RC1 fuel cell, which shares space with the NOS tanks, as reported by the current owner and witnessed in the photos. There's also a heavy-duty radiator with dual electric fans rated for 400CFM. A Holley 4-bbl carb, Edelbrock Victor Jr. aluminum intake manifold, 140-amp racing alternator, and MSD Digital 6 ignition system help the engine make reliable power. You'll also admire the polished alternator brackets, chromed alternator housing, polished recovery tanks, and polished aluminum valve covers. Belltech rear shocks keep things steady, and a Wilwood disc brake system with braided brake lines for all four wheels ensures ample stopping power.
