1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Tribute Convertible

Why This Vehicle is Special

In 1971, the Chevrolet Chevelle SS got a new grille surrounded by single headlamps replacing the duals of previous years, and four round taillights similar to Camaros and Corvettes were located in the bumper.

We have a beautifully restored bright red 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Tribute (we can't prove it is a real one but it could be) Convertible for sale here at Skyway Classics that is a true time-capsule of what the car looked and drove like back in 1971 and it is a convertible with air conditioning to boot.

Mechanical

Under the hood you will find a very clean and detailed engine compartment that houses a 350 cubic inch engine with cold blowing factory air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, all correct factory wiring, hoses, decals, Chevrolet LT1 type finned aluminum valve covers, chrome factory style open element air cleaner, aluminum intake with its four-barrel carb, and true tubular exhaust headers.

The engine runs great with fresh fluids and ready for the road today. This Chevelle has an automatic transmission with a restored chassis and suspension, 10-bolt rear end, dual exhaust, new shocks, sway bar, and rides on factory 5-spoke dark grey mag wheels with chrome trim rings and caps and great raised white letter BF Goodrich Radial TA tires.

Interior

Inside our 1971 restored Chevelle you will find the factory look of a black split bench seat in the front with headrests and a bench seat in the rear. The rest of the interior's presentation looks as new with the black carpeting and Chevelle floor mats, black factory dash with the stock gauges and accessory gauges in a panel below, air conditioning, clock, aftermarket radio, black sport steering wheel, matching door panels, and the factory black seatbelts.

It also has a clean and detailed trunk with the spare tire being the matching correct factory mag wheel and BF Goodrich tire to complete the look.

Exterior

Radical styling changes were introduced for the 1971 Chevelle adopting a much more square look that ours has. The restored paint is in great condition in the bright shade of red and with the SS badging and twin black racing stripes on the hood and trunk it will be an eye catcher at any local car show.

The car boasts a black convertible top and matching black boot and all the correct chrome trim and chrome bumpers really set it off as well as that great wheel and tire combination that gives it a great factory look and stance.
