Chevrolet El Camino SS 454 454 V8 1971
General description :
Description
With its sinister-style dark presentation and growling big block V8 power, this 1971 Chevrolet El Camino SS 454 has the attitude you're going to love. And when you see the little extras, like the bucket seat interior, it proves this is the classic car/truck you've been waiting for.
This is a good-looking muscle machine. After all, it shares the face with one of the most iconic vehicles to hit the road: the '71 Chevelle SS. In fact, the Super Sport style is strong on this one with an intimidating first impression that includes the blackout grille w/SS badging, cowl hood, and white racing stripes painted on top. The glossy black paint adds to this mean attitude. Combined with the good sheetmetal and panel fit, it has the right look you want for a quality classic. Plus, it has plenty of classic American brightwork with the chrome bumper, upgraded 15-inch wheels, and a full trim package that highlights the El Camino's unique truck bed.
The dark intimidation continues inside. The carpeting, headliner, and dash have that deep black appearance of quality. There are even nice details, like the factory air conditioning controls (it will need components and servicing to return the function.) Plus, the upgraded bucket seats offer plenty of comfort with wide headrests and good bolstering. And this one really likes being a driver's machine. You have a center console with horseshoe shifter, three spoke sports steering wheel on a tilt column, an auxiliary readout trio, and a sporty SS-style gauge pack that includes a large speedo and tach.
This El Camino truly has a dark heart with a well-built 454 cubic-inch V8. Not only is the big block finished in black, but also the air grabber, intake, and other details for a distinct and attractive style. More than just look nice, you have some pretty nice power, too. It's upgraded with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and Doug's headers that flow into the rumbling H-pipe dual exhaust. There's even nice supporting components such as MSD ignition and aluminum radiator with dual electric fans. The TH400 three-speed automatic transmission is both a strong and stout unit, and that feeds a beefy 12-bolt rear end. Plus, with power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and wide BF Goodrich T/As, this is a solid all-around driver.
Complete with build receipts, this is the iconic classic with big block power and a terrific mean-streak look. When something this desirable is also so affordable, you don't want to miss out. Call now!

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
