Lot #1035 - This 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS convertible is a complete restoration and customization built for performance and speed. A high-quality restoration with no expense spared and all top-of-the-line modifications. This car was finished in early 2012 and has test miles only. The Chevelle was built around a brand-new 1971 Chevelle Stage III chassis by RS Performance Concepts. Designed with an aggressive stance and built for modern day performance and serviceability. The powertrain features a new GM Chevrolet ZZ572 crate motor with a huge 1090 King Demon carburetor that sits on top, Hughes HR4 HD automatic transmission and Ford 9" posi-traction rear differential with a 3.73 gear set.
