1971 Chevrolet Malibu Chevelle
In lieu of the fact of being in production for just 13 years � less time than the Cadillac CTS nameplate � the Chevrolet Chevelle has been heralded as one of the best, most accomplished vehicles ever to don the bowtie.� It shared a platform with the El Camino and Monte Carlo: Though it was available in convertible, two-door, four-door, and station wagon-wagon body styles, the multivariate Chevelle also share it's A-body platform with the El Camino, and the 1970-'72 Monte Carlo (though it was coded as a G-body in the latter).� Despite wearing one of the most famous nameplates of all time, Chevrolet has yet to revive the name.� Though we've heard rumblings and rumors over the years, Chevrolet has vehemently denied claims that a new Chevelle is in the works.
For consignment, the year to have the Chevelle was 1971.� From its sporty grille to the rear bumper with the round tail lights inserted within and miles of dark blue metallic paint with black wide racing stripes with inverted flames within them, and a sexy black vinyl top for that great roofline and back glass, you can turn heads and the tires with this ass kicker.
Exterior
Steeped in Dark blue metallic which is now covering all rust-free panels of this muscle car.� The finish is pristine, and all chromed trimmings are excellent. �Badging is correct, and from top, (black vinyl), to bottom, (which is a shiny stainless rocker), front, (which is the original bowtie egg crate grille with SS badge in the center), to back, (housing the taillights in the bumper), this car is definitely tightly buttoned up.� Dual wide black racing stripes are on the hood and trunk and sport knockout flames in their centers.� Put on a set of 17 and 18-inch polished hurricane pattern CNC cut wheels and wrap them in Nitto Extreme rubber on all 4 corners ... It's show time!
Interior
A typical but really nice SS door panel with some vertical tuck and roll, (think top half of the bowtie!), greets us as we slip into custom high back buckets made from black vinyl and have blue flames stitched within their inserts. �The flames even extend on to the floors as they lick to the gas pedal, (think BOOM!).� A rear matching bench is in the back.� These cozy up to the black carpeted center hump with a T style Hurst shifter.� Up front, below the padded dash top, is a simple GM dash, (120MPH speedo), with several add ons which include a Pioneer AM/FM/CD player and a trio of aftermarket gauges in a shiny panel.� These monitor oil pressure, water temp and volts. �A billet style ribbed wing style rally wheel has a tachometer mounted to the column.� Above is a very nice black headliner as tight as a drum.
Drivetrain
A stunner and a gunner if you will, upon opening the hood, it is showroom shiny, and sports a 350ci Jasper crate engine. �It has a beautifully painted orange/red block, and plenty of chrome add ons like the Chevy badged chrome valve coverings and the open sided air cleaner holder.� On top is an Edelbrock 1406 4-barrel carburetor and intake manifold both courtesy Edelbrock. �On the back is an TH350 3-speed automatic transmission.� The rear axle is a 12-bolt. �Ceramic coated headers aid the exhale, and a high voltage ignition has been installed, along with an aluminum radiator.�
Undercarriage
Much like the topside with slight surface rust but remaining structurally sound.� Seen are power drums all around, independent coil springs for the fronts and a 4 link with coil springs for the rear suspension. �A nice clean black painted environment with very little road dirt.
Drive-Ability
This car lit right up and ran beautifully on the test track. �Plenty of acceleration from the 350 and 4-barrel, and good handling.� Braking was solid and all other functions were working, save the heater blower.
A great presentation, fine runner and all very nicely finished off, particularly in the engine bay, but really all over including the interior which is totally carom seats.� Great color combo, nice powerful mill, and all good on the SS Malibu trim Chevelle front, rear , center and interior..well you get it!
