Available as the wondrously engineered and stunningly expensive LS6, the Chevelle SS454 was essentially just a few notches from NASCAR performance territory, and it absolutely terrified anyone who dared contest it at the dragstrips. Laying down 450 HP and 500 lb-ft of torque, very few muscle cars of the era could match it, especially for the price. But, while expensive, comparably speaking, it was a bargain.Still, for those seeking exceptional performance without shelling out the coin or worrying about the fuel requirements and potential maintenance involved with a near-race engine, the LS5 was the ticket. Using high-performance components to pepper up the performance of the already-potent 454 CI big-block V-8, the LS5 lent an air of daily drivability to a race car package. It produced a relatively docile 360 HP yet still matched the LS6 with 500 lb-ft of torque. The end result was a very powerful engine with a friendlier demeanor that could still crack the whip on the street and strip.This 1971 Chevelle SS is equipped with the LS5 454 and produces 365 HP, up a bit from the previous year. Having undergone a professional, nut-and-bolt, body-off, rotisserie restoration, the car features a matching-numbers LS5 engine mated to a 4-speed manual transmission and a 12-bolt rear end. Fitted with power brakes with front discs, it's finished in Sunflower Yellow with black striping and fitted with the cowl hood with hold-down pins. Rolling on argent 5-spoke wheels with Firestone Wide Oval white-lettering tires, this Chevelle is dressed with rechromed bumpers, a chrome driver's mirror and dual exhausts with chrome tips. Inside, a black interior with a bench seat, AM radio and chrome shifter drive home the point that this car was focused on performance over optional extras.All of our classic cars go through our rigorous inspection and items that need repair get fixed unlike cars bought at auctions, So rest assured that you are getting a quality classic car!We do our best to fix issues and give you an accurate description.
