While the Chevelle name has been long gone from Chevy's showroom for decades, its legacy lives on in the hearts and minds of muscle car enthusiasts everywhere. One look at this 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Restomod, and it's easy to see why this car has been so lusted after. Fully repainted in a beautiful, vibrant blue, complete with light grey stripes, this Chevelle has a mere 2,401 miles since it was rebuilt. With its cowl hood, blacked-out grille, stripes, and badging, this Chevelle definitely qualifies as an SS Tribute car, showcasing classic lines while not-so-subtly hinting at modern technology through LED headlights and sequential LED taillights.
Inside, we find an incredibly inviting factory-style dark blue interior. A cloth/vinyl split-bench seat, complete with headrests, and a matching rear bench seat leave plenty of room for the whole family. A wood-rimmed, power-assisted steering wheel sits ahead of a set of Dakota Digital gauges featuring an 8,000-rpm tachometer and a 160-mph speedometer. A quadruplet of auxiliary gauges sits offset to the right, providing all the info a driver could want, all in one place. A sliding HVAC setup provides welcome AC for the summer months, while a Pioneer AM/FM/CD/Bluetooth head unit offers plenty of entertainment by powering kick panel and rear package tray speakers, along with a truck-mounted Alpine amplifier.
Under that expansive hood, we find a late-model 5.3-liter overhead valve V-8 engine. With its composite intake manifold, electronic fuel injection, large aluminum radiator, dual electric fans, shorty headers, X-pipe dual exhaust, and sweet-sounding MagnaFlow mufflers, this Chevelle sounds as good as any Golden Age big block. Power is funneled through a 4L80E four-speed automatic transmission before heading to the ten-bolt rear end, which transfers power to the pavement via a set of big, polished 20-inch Ridler wheels shod in 275/35R-18 low-profile rubber. At the same time, a narrower set of 245/40R-18 tires and 18-inch wheels handles steering duties up front.
