1971 Chevelle SS

Vin 136371L112703

This classic car was lovingly restored by a respected collector in Seattle and brought back to its full hot rod glory.

It’s powered by a Chevrolet BB 502 (less than 3k miles) and lots of hot rod upgrades including Holley carb, high performance distributor and lots of chrome parts.

Major upgrades include air conditioning from Vintage Air, front disc brake conversion, battery disconnect switch, and modern stereo.  The interior was completely reupholstered by Original Parts Group. 

The exterior sports authentic blue and black styling with American Racing mag wheels and Goodyear white letter Wingfoot tires.

The car has been gone through top to bottom with many parts repaired or replaced.  There is a complete folder of receipts documenting the upgrades.
