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.
The Sixties and Seventies were a wonderful time to be of driving (or rather car purchasing) age. The Big Three, namely General Motors, Chrysler Corporation and Ford were fiercely competing for a slice of your income, by offering potent machines with amazing street performance, grunty V8s and a decent amount of family friendliness thrown in. Many of these machines competed in the full-size segment, as many buyers simply wanted a big car. One of the icons of that period was the Chevy Chevelle. A full-size contender, it was made between 1963 and 1977, across three generations. Today, getting your hands on a Chevelle is a dream for many because it’s a well-aged classic car that can, especially in potent SS form, still scare some modern metal. That’s why we’re glad to offer this Georgia-based 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu for sale to one lucky person. It’s a powerful symbol of a freer time when horsepower dominated everything else, and cars were really fun to drive. You didn’t have a myriad of electronic nannies; control was purely in your hands.
Being one of Chevrolet's most popular nameplates brings prominence to the original Chevelle. It was offered in coupes, sedans, convertibles, and station wagons. The Chevelle has some racing history under its belt as well. Its body style was used to win 34 races and win the first two of three consecutive Grand National championships. In 1966, two years after the introduction, the Chevelle was redesigned to reflect the "Coke bottle" body shape. This well-kept example of the 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle flaunts this body style beautifully. We were told that this car features a few new details and components, including the engine and transmission. With only 3,256 miles done after the rebuild, this Chevelle is ready to be picked up from Topeka, Kansas.
The Chevrolet brand set the standard for American automobiles in the 60s, and it only takes one look at this 1965 Chevrolet Chevelle Deluxe Wagon to understand why. The simple and straightforward nature of the car speaks to the American spirit. With the wagon form, this Chevelle packed with a host of upgrades, after reportedly undergoing a full restoration with a 410 hp 383ci stroker engine, a new paint job in 2015 according to the current owner, aftermarket wheels, new tires and an all-new interior. If you’re looking for an classic that is unique, then this Chevelle is what you’re looking for.

Everyone wants a C8 Corvette. That’s because for the Corvette’s eighth generation, GM stunned Americans when they moved the engine from ahead of, to behind the passenger cell. That, paired with supercar-inspired looks and more performance capability, means that the C8 is a performance bargain for keen drivers. The C8 is also the first Corvette to be officially made in right-hand drive, and sold outside the United States, namely in Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and the United Kingdom. If you’re one of those C8 fans, we’ve got a car for you. Check out this 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe 3LT Z51 from Virginia that’s done just 7,523 miles so far. The car also comes with the Z51 Performance Package, which dials things up even more.
Mazda is perhaps the only mass market auto manufacturer that has dabbled with the rotary engine for a few decades, and sold significant numbers of rotary-engined cars. Their legendary RX-7 is firmly cemented in enthusiast and tuner history as one of the greats. The RX-8 that followed was a bit more mellow, but added some family friendliness to the package while retaining that smooth, high-revving rotary motor. Apart from these models, there were a few others in history. One of these was the RX-3, which was offered between 1971 and 1978. This was the rotary-engined variant of the Mazda Grand Familia compact car, Mazda’s answer to Toyota’s fearsome Corolla and the Sunny from Nissan. Today, finding a Grand Familia is hard to say the least, much less its rarer rotary-engined variant, but we’ve got one right here. If you want a Japanese curio to grace your garage, this 1975 Mazda RX-3 awaits in Zephyrhills, Florida. It’s got an original 36,000 miles too.
Popularly called the hairy-chested Healey, the Austin-Healey 3000 was, as the name suggests, a large-engined British sports car, typically in roadster form. Unlike typical British roadsters of the time, the Austin-Healey 3000 came with an uncharacteristically large six-cylinder powerplant and was, overall, a larger car, albeit by not much. Produced between 1959 and 1967, it makes for an excellent classic car to own and cherish. Interestingly, in the Austin-Healey 3000’s later years, the majority of production found its way to North America. Today, we’ve got one of those cars, a 1961 Austin-Healey 3000 BN7 Roadster from Gastonia, North Carolina. Why not pick it up and make it your weekend cruiser?
Shown to the world in 1968, the Series 1 Jaguar XJ is famous for being the last Jaguar to have been designed under the leadership of Sir William Lyons, the man who founded Jaguar Cars of Britain. The XJ is also well-known for retaining much of its classic styling cues for over four decades, offering a refreshingly different choice to luxury car buyers who didn’t feel like going for the popular German choices. Today, we’ve got a way for you to sample a modern classic XJ, in the shape of this Series 3 1987 Jaguar XJ6 from Cooper City, Florida. The car has traveled 84,000 miles which shows that it’s been enjoyed, but with continued maintenance, can keep on going and going. That’s why you should seriously consider taking it on, as it’s a classic that you can daily drive and even use for family transport requirements.
