1971 Chevy Chevelle SS 402 4 Speed Convertible Barn Find wit hbuild sheet included. Own a piece of documented history...... this makes the value sky rocket! This is a 1971 Chevelle SS Convertible that was recently procured from it's original owner. The car retains it's original coat of Nevada silver paint that GM applied back in 1971. The original owner purchased the car in 1971 from a dealer in Elgin, IL. He used the car up until 1980 or so and the car has been off the road since then. The car seen a few trips to the drag strip in the mid 80's, but sat for a long time. The interior is completely original and will need plenty of work. The SS dash is in great shape. The car has a power top, the original M-20 4 speed. The engine is unfortunately not the original. It is a 1971 454 that only has about 3,000 miles on it. It was last run about 3 years ago and is free, but I have not started it. The frame is completely solid front to rear. The car is truly a very solid piece. The quarters, obviously original to the car are really nice. Inner/outer wheelhouses are issue free. Trunk is rock solid. Floors are super nice, the driver and passenger front pans each have golf ball sized holes at the toe board front seams, but do NOT need replacement. The doors are super nice. The only real rust issue with the car is the dog leg portion of the front fenders. They have some rust. Obviously, the top is shot. The top frame is very nice and it is power. The car has disk brakes, power steering, power top. The original posi rear end. The rims and tires are not original to the car. The trans shifts in and out of every gear fine...the clutch engages. The brakes...well those are going to need to be gone through. I have no POP, have the original title. The car is as honest as they come. It's a REAL SS 4 speed posi convertible that when you get done with will have all original metal. I urge a local inspection. This car is a investment, not a expense. call chevelle joe 312.622.7533
